Doesn't matter how good a driver you are...

I'm amazed at how easily those cars broke apart on impact. To the point where you could easily see the driver sat there when they came to rest. I guess that's what happens when you replace steel body panel with carbon ones to save weight.

That reminded me of that large F1 crash at Spa in the rain a few years back just before eau rouge

That marshall that had his legs taken out from under him was seriously lucky to be able to get up and wobble away (he was a bit chubby which might have saved him )

That's one hell of a pile up!

Mark - I think the orange TVR is a 440R Tuscan missing the front inspection bonnet
