You've got to applaud the marshals, as soon as the car stops they're running towards it preparing the extinguishers as they go and the fire is out after only 10-12 seconds. They're the reason motorsport is able to continue in these safety obsessed days.
@mikethenascarfan uh no the G50 is natural aspirated so wouldn't have an intercooler, even if it did, there is something dreadfuly wrong it it is full of water! It is one of the radiator hoses.
I think that there should be a button in the car that allows the drivers to escape through the doors. Its been a big problem in GT and Touring car racing. He is very lucky, but what a rollcage, whithout it he wouldn't be here today.
How did this happen? The video seems show that he might have been punted up the rear but I guess there must have been an enquiry. Hats off to Ginetta for their roll cage and to the marshalls for their bravery.
As far as I'm aware, because I've been talking to the mechanics of Rob Austin racing, he was hit by another car from behind or the side, and then sent him off. The fire was from the petrol tank, it became open and leaked, which then caught fire.. as far as I'm aware by my boyfriends words who works on the Ginetta cars for rob austin.

@mikethenascarfan , i think thats the the fuel pipe to the engine, it must have been because it squirted a trail of fuel that got lit up.

its not the make or model that makes them safer. these cars are torn apart and rebuilt with stronger materials and with safety in mind.
