Ceramic Rotor Failure?
Saw these pics on another forum.
Was the ceramic rotor the cause or the result?
Wonder if this persons insurance agent has grey hair yet? Or should I say GT Silver hair...

I have to agree with Steve due to the area of the damage relative to that corner. Bummer happening really..

it's remarkable how straight the chassis is after that hit - looks like a good bit of speed and a metal pole.
shark bite - ouch i wonder if the chassis will be repairable or if it is stress fractured (meaning totaled) - it will have to be x-rayed to be sure.

Three Wheelin'
Here is a picture from the Carrera GT production line display in Leipzig. We can see the three different carbon parts of the chassis. If the car is not completely written off, I could imagine Porsche replacing the rear part only. But is the chassis damaged? I'd really like to know the end of that story.

if it is just eh rear section it should be repairable - actually it is probably 100% reparable i t jsut depends on which sections are replaced. 150K-300K for a fix
