Tyson Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-16027006 Ouch! Saw that earlier, apparently one of the Ferrari drivers tried a manouver that didn't work causing him to mate with the central reservation and take out the other 11 cars that were persuing in a spirited manner. I bet he is going to be popular !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lbm Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 ...apparently one of the Ferrari drivers tried a manouver that didn't work.... !! And this manouver was also known as "attempting to change lane" It's a tricky beast at the best of times. Bit of wheelspin on the white lines?

Bit of wheelspin on the white lines? I doubt changing lanes normally would have ended like this. He was probably showing off which led to his undoing. Witnesses said they were doing 85 to 100 MPH and were most likely travelling in close convoy which is probably why he ended taking out 11 others cars in the resulting spin.

Guest Budz86 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Considering that one of them was driving a race spec Scuderia I doubt very much they were cruising at 70mph - I'm just wondering if anyone caught it on film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
