Good job in waiting for news before posting this
We’re do you watch the races
The car he slammed into saved him
Got to be the 7th or 8th brake failure I've seen at Donington in 5 years. The place is very hard on brakes and not many people expect it. Redgate as well seems to be the place it all lets go. I've seen careers ended there in the past few years due to brakes going into redgate
Yes, I was at the circuit for this event, and last year I think it was when the Nissan went straight on.
How, Why?
nasty crahs glad he is ok considering he seemed to be knoked out at first
Believe this was caused by a brake failure after leaking all of the fluid
I am surprised the car don't rollover
Yeah the mini basically has no body roll 😂
Lucky he hit the other car 😮
Either stick throttle or brake failure that was a failure for sure
Brakes would be my guess, considering there was no lock ups of any kind.
It was a brake failure
Looks for all the world like the throttle stuck.
He would have turned the car off & smoke would of poured from the brakes & tyres.... this was a brake failure
@@maybenot6075 you're right it was
Did his car snap right?
It seems likely his brakes failed or his throttle stuck wide open. He veered right to avoid the cars in front.
He's OK? He doesn't move 🙄
I can confirm he back at gis home to recover

He is so lucky he hit Zelos, that could’ve digged into the gravel, rolled over and potentially gone over the fence and into the crowd
