look at this >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVaNwl0qqfA
don't worry I'm ok... ( a miracle ? )
my car is still in Belgium, I think I'll see her back this week ....
a nightmare ...
it was the 4th gear at about 6000 rpm >>> very fast ( 190 /200 km/h )

Wow.
Lousy luck !
Glad you're ok.
Good/interesting footage anyway. From the "messed-up" signal it seemed like a fairly rough impact. I know it really didn't show much of the car, but it did show a bit of the left rear quarter where I guessed it would have hit and didn't look awful.
Hope you get it fixed quick & inexpensive !

but after XRAY, scan, everything is ok ...

That totally sucks but at least you are ok!
Since I don't live in europe and fixing these cars is too expensive i do my racing on that computer game GTR....thats a tricky corner when the curbs unsettle the car in the game. Ive done that more than a few times but there's no reset button in real life...be careful!

Eau Rouge gets the best drivers in the world every now and again... Fisichella had the same off, in the same place driving for Renault during the last F1 race there. That corner is a nasty witch.
Gald that you're OK.

OUCH!!
Watching that video I never would have expected a spin there...a bump or something on the road...off-camber turn? Did going down that little dip then up near the crest of the hill unweight the car?
Hopefully the car is not too expensive to fix.
Glad your OK!

Really sorry to see that but the real important part is that you're unhurt. At 200 km/h, nasty things could've happened. Hope you get it back to pristine soon.
When did it happen? I was planning to go to Spa this weekend to participate in the BMW Drivers Club weekend but my car wasn't ready!

Can you explain what happened?
Looks like you lost traction uphill on the right apex!!

F#$k. Sorry for your car. Glad you are ok. That is in fact "The Corner". I see you were able to avoid the left wall and that was a great thing...I guess.
