Youtube Clips - Touring Cars and non open wheeler stuff.

Postby Everso Biggyballies » July 19th, 2010, 5:26 pm

Brands Hatch Seat Eurocup Major Crash this weekend.. :o

Support race this weekend at the Brands WTCC and F2 meeting.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKtUoxx7nok

No one injured, and the driver (Francisco Carvalho from Portugal) walked away from the remnants. . No marshalls were injured in the making of this video. (Although several would have needed fresh underwear after the incident.)

But I think you will agree very lucky for all considering the carnage.

I dont normally take any interest in crash videos unless they are a bit out of the ordinary and no one gets hurt. I normally am even less enthusiastic about truck racing.....

However this is a truck racing accident at Interlagos and is quite honestly the most remarkable accident with no injuries I have ever seen. Take a note of the cab coming off one of the trucks as the other truck lands on it..... and then wonder where the driver is..... Watch it and find out.

PS. The other driver is Bruno Junqueira, trapped upside down for some time and fortunately walks away unhurt, after several minutes extracting him.

I saw another video of it today from a hand held in the crowd - possibly even more frightening? Hang on..
