and even worse: my favourite driver Mc Nish was involved

2nd Audi ousted in a high speed crash, again by a ferrari 458.
In the year where Audi could pass Ferrari in overall wins at lemans.
some would say that is really suspicious.

Sounds like he walked away. Audi down to one.

 

yeah, Audi MS boss Ullrich said that Rockenfeller left the car by himself (like Mc Nish)
and was sitting behind the barrier till the ambulance picked him up.
almost unreal at such speeds. commentators said, the R18 was running ~180mph when it crashed.
all i can say is: Monocoque FTW!

 

I've driven in mixed-class races, and it can be scary. In GrandAm, if you're in a slower class, you're instructed to stay on the racing line, and watch your mirrors. Unfortunately, most of the race is spent watching your mirrors. Racing incidents. Stuff happens. Glad all the drivers are ok.
