Horrible accident leaving Spa circuit...
 
Very disturbing pictures. You have been warned.

69,781 people "like" that?

WOW. Sad, certainly one of the worst I've ever seen pictures of.

Unbelievable.

I'm looking for a 430 right rear and license plate, both look salvageable

Thanks for the warning, but I had to look. Positively dreadful.

DOUGLAP1 09-04-2012 10:27 PM

Very sad. I'm guessing this was the result of target fixation.

Speaking of bad press for Ferrari:

Yipes. Ranger / cop friend recently told me of a perp who ran away from him while drunk and hid between railroad tracks.........with his arms over the rails to "hide". You can guess the outcome.
Awful.

Ugh - and I can't imagine what it is like to be a first responder.

Awful. Makes me think how unsafe street driving really is. Even more so at high speed. RIP to the victims.

It is sad. But...can you imagine the speed that car was carrying? You almost have to think somebody was driving well beyond their ability.

The one "eyewitness" account in the comments stated ~200KPH. That's not exactly at the limit of most men and certainly not this car. Absent us finding out more about this driver, and how that actual stretch of road lays out, of course.
