Can't watch the vid as I am at work, but how the hell do you crash in a straight line, unless avoiding other traffic. I have driven that road and its very safe, but usually quite busy too.

If the car is worth $1M, surely it's economically repairable ie a lot of the value is in the scarcity / rarity ?

Who knows. CF is virtually impossible to repair, so cars with CF chassis' usually need to be rebult from the ground up. I can't see much of that car being salvageable, even the engine is looks focked.

The occupants were ok I believe
