Le Mans 24 Hours - Allan McNish SPECTACULAR crash

I believe we have a few race fans on here so thought I would share this.

How nobody was hurt is beyond me.

Yep, I missed the start today on Eurosport.

Unfortunately, I can't see your video. I can't see many videos at the moment on here with Opera and I haven't sussed it yet.

I'll google it.

EDIT: Wow, how was no one badly hurt from that? A miracle, and a real shame for a talented driver.

I don't actually watch motor sports but saw it on the news and was amazed.

In case anyone else has trouble viewing videos on here, then here is a youtube link if that helps.

Amazing how the car went over the barrier yet landed back behind it. :blink: Freaky stuff. Lots of fiberglass.

Amazing how the car went over the barrier yet landed back behind it.

That's what I thought.

Yes it is amazing how nobody was killed, as they say "Racing on the track is safer than on the road"........they also print this on the back of the Racetrack entry ticket "Motor racing is dangerous.....etc......enter at your own risk". B)

Basically the tyre barrier did its job, and a job well done! Luckily that crash didn't happen on the really insanely fast areas!!!

I would've been watching the race over here across the pond but SPEED Channel over here has some strange quality issue looking jagged, etc., which is an eye sore.
