That could have been really bad if the second contact was any harder since the driver of the fireball already had his belts mostly off.

They probably need to have a conversation with drivers thinking this is Days of Thunder and just keeping the hammer down into a fireball.

Clearly the lack of conversation they had at Spa last year has paid off...

Genuinely amazing how much safety has improved. I reckon 10 years ago, there would be a lot more injuries if a similar crash happened.

The way those cars skip about reminds me of touring car racing before aero. Brilliant watch.

I don't recall this being posted at the time so if it was I apologise.

In 2022 a Croatian farmer found Adrian Fourmaux's WRC Ford Puma in his front garden, so he gave him some cheese.

From a recent No Prep event, a wheelstand very late into the run with $30K up for grabs.

Yes there is footage out there of the run too on Facebook.

They used to routinely "just" be 2 wheels off the deck through there, but this year went further, and it wasn't just one or two either - it was lap after lap for most of the field. Chaz Mostert took something like 1.2 seconds out of the lap record on a 69 second lap, and I'm sure the new line through turn 9 pictured above was a part of that. The Surfers Paradise chicanes have always been wild but this year more than ever.
