Mark Webber Crash - Red Bull Racing - Formula One Valencia European Grand Prix 2010

[Toagrimlock102098]

He got really lucky surviving that crash

[justandy333]

No worries, im sure that'll buff out.

[ljw571]

he is lucky not to connect with the catch fence or this could have been worse.

see Mike Conway at this years indy 500.

[NovioSites]

What's the point? It's just the Red Bull air race!

[Magiclaurie]

Ha this is why I love webber.

[RattosLocosJonny]

Webber hate DHL xD

[GTFCxCripple]

Disliked cause i hate red bull F1, McClaren cause of Button and Hamilton.

[MurphyMonster]

I think DHL just ended their sponsorship deal for the grand prix

[darkspark64]

@MurphyMonster lol yea same here lol :))

[jakemadge]

Demonstration there of what happens when large amounts of downforce are applied in the air

[Dalekdom]

Not too shaby :S

[zdrastvoite1]

@mini4dudo

What did he have to say? I just read about on BBC.

[Luca17F1]

Wow

[ian7410]

red bull should turn this into one of there adverts

[supernova195LM]

owned!

[f4tm]

thats his 3rd high speed flip webbers crashes are awsome. NO FEAR!

[MrMags05]

Sorry guys got that wrong entirely researched Mark and found out a lot about his ability,not listening to media anymore,good to see Aussies supporting him the only winner of a Grand Prix since Alan Jones.

[N1CKZzZzZzZzz]

that costs MILLIONS lol

[Apeman1991]

about time something cool happened, this season has been awesome, last 5 have been shit

[c0rt3z]

Imagine he flew into the catch fences, that would've been some even nastier crash. Glad he's okay!

[confusedhebru]

WOW THAT WAS AMASING

[ZakAust]

Webber loves doing back flips in cars. I remember he did it in a Mercedes in the 90s. Silly man doesn't realize cars aren't meant to fly.

[tmd416]

WoW , What a fantastic race! that breaking scene.

[HanZie82]

This crap stays on, and the video were the quality was good is removed.

Fucking bullshit property claims or whatever.

[TheQuintin123456]

I got dizzy just watching the onboard cam! damn lucky webber

[saatana4]

It looks like Kovalainen braked 100 meters before the corner. And Webber said kovalainen braked 80m earlier than webber on lap before that crash so Webber can brake from 300 km/h to 90 km/h in 20 meters LOL

[NoYouCantDoLikeMe179]

People saying that he could have been killed? not really, theses guys are surounded by a full metal cage you don't see it on the outside.

[ossiefeyenoord]

is he dead?

[ZRX1200RUTROWE]

They need to remove all of the DHL signs. He's lucky that sign didn't get inside the cock-pit

[richyb21]

tosser

[crazycow127]

shit happends, glad there both ok tho, that was pritty epic : )

[xDaveDinosaurx]

Do a barrel roll

[preethamnaik8]

Redbull gives u wings :p

[tomykilerify]

Jezus christ lucky bastard he survided that!!!!

[dude1234king]

Wow lucky. that could've killed him.

[FanaticFerrariFan]

Mark auditioning for the Red Bull air race there...

[ninermike01]

'Monocoque'

[doiwantsomerandom]

its amazing how strong f1 cars are, the basic monnequok or whatever its called was bascially intact it was just the wings and wheels that took the damage

[GLeNss]

LOL FLIP

[zdrastvoite1]

@mini4dudo I agree. It wasn't really either's fault. Henki had a different braking pattern than Webber for that curve and Webber just wasn't expecting that defensive style of driving, especially from a Lotus.

[blt90]

I know F1 cars are designed to so the drivers head doesnt hit the ground but it always makes me cringe when they flip :|

[RochDawg619]

I was watching this race and it wasn't a great start for him so i was not paying the most attention then i saw this i was like HolyShitBalls! Quite amazing that he just walked away straight afterwards without even a scratch

[iMojoHolland]

DHL

[jabbid111]

Red Bull gives you wings.

[DTesq6]

@jabbid111 Well done, you just repeated what's in the description. Really original you prick.

[Nos9512]

@jabbid111 quite litlery

[Superchickenman159]

@jabbid111 that's true, red bull funded the rear "wing" for the car and it's downforce caused it to "fly"

[DarkForgottenUchiha]

This guy should be dead.

[JPjrproductions]

@DarkForgottenUchiha Nooo F1 is far to advanced with tech this is a small crash to compaired to sum that only cause a few bruises.

[IchRushDichDown]

Red Bull verleiht Flügel...kriegt a ganz neue Bedeutung :S

[C0mpre55m3]

Insane view from the in car cam!

[wikichris]

Good advertising for DHL.

[ImprovedMexican]

I missed this in the race, and turned it on about halfway through and I saw Mark was out. They were on about some accident and I wanted to see it. then when forum came on they showed it and I was just screaming

"Fucking Hell!" at the screen! I was amazed and glad that Mark was perfectly OK.

[TheBrankoN]

OMG

[an4rew]

and Martin brundle has been upside down before ;)

[uncaringbear]

Mark's a talented driver, but I really think he needs to try something new, outside of F1.

[DevilHuntar]

Its fantastic that the commentators dont even seem surprised. they just keep on talking like nothing happened!

[karl100589]

@DevilHuntar That's because this is a replay of the incident. When it took place live they were actually very shocked.

[DevilHuntar]

@karl100589 Ok ty

[natzterdude555]

DAAAMMNN

[TheToondood]

You LUCKY bugger Mark!!! You must be a cat, "2 lives down, & 7 to go". :)

Good on ya mate;)

[Stergioskana]

he is good?

[Rhydiddy]

@Stergioskana Webber is very good, 4th of the ladder actually... Very impressive considering his opponents

[johnbelushi420]

@Stergioskana etting very good considering his car and opponents...he's currently 4th on the rankings

[winston6363]

I believe, I can fly ....

I believe I can touch the sky ...

[cccecider]

so you really can drive those cars upside down....i always thought it was a myth..lol

[Edman1993TAKE3]

I wonder how long this video will be avaible @ youtube.... :(

Unlucky i've got experience with it.

[indianajoe14]

I Genuilly thought he might of been Dead, But then he just got straight out of his Car! But After the Vettel crash, I think Webber out of the Drivers Championship, And with Hamilton and Button consistantly in the Top 3 Mclaren should win the Constructors

[jbvol3]

@indianajoe14 Nah he's not out yet, he's done very well this season and I expect him to come back somewhat, don't know if he has it in him to win it though. as a fan I hope he does though!

[Cascade3891]

Weber getting his touch back. Getting back to his roots. He used to crash out all the time. His form has dipped as of late, which explains his finishes without a scratch ... but this crash he's getting that touch back, back the way he used to do it every race.

[ringspanner]

Now Webber Has entered the red bull air race his take off is not too bad but his landing needs some practice

[jaronhwc]

In Holland red bull has a slowgun " red bull geeft je vleugels" That means in english " red. Bull gives you wings".

[i9smae3l]

@jaronhwc that's their slogan all over the world not just Holland.. so yes we know haha

[MENOTYOUism]

If you watch carefully Mark gets over corrective with He`s overtake, jinx to the left before going right but too late as KOV is slowing for the braking zone while preparing to let WEB get through.

[muddwell]

lmao @ Brundle's "woaahhh". As Webbo was quoted 'it takes two to tango', so he agreed he was partially at fault. Its one thing to defend, but pick your braking point Heikki! lol as well @ Heikki giving the thumbs up to the camera before realising its prolly not the best time to do that ...

[robbotheone]

Vintage shit driving by webber who just finds everyway possible to lose didn't he start in 2 nd position and ended up behind a lotus on lap 10

[marduke83]

@robbotheone - yes he started 2nd which is on the green side of the track (ie the dirty side) so got a very poor start, fell down to 9th by the time it all settled down then had trouble getting past hulkenberg as its almost impossible to pass on this track with similar paced cars. The team called him in to do his tyre change early and to get him into clean air which put him behind the lotus. The lotus is not even in the same class as the red bull and should not have tried to defend against mark.

[robbotheone]

@marduke83 back to his old self starting poor and finding trouble will not win championship with this form

[robbotheone]

@marduke83  i watched the race so don t tell me how the race went

[marduke83]

@robbotheone - no need to get your knickers in a knot mate. Seemed like you were asking a question ie 'didn't he start in 2 nd position and ended up behind a lotus on lap 10'.

[MENOTYOUism]

Thats what happens when you get it wrong, He`s very lucky the Car didnt barrel roll after flipping.

[leebekben]

Astounding.

[jayspysonu]

Thx for posting this! Missed the race and heard about the crash. Glad i got to c it!

[RaceKing62]

I jst goes to show how safe these modern F1 cars are. That was coming off the back straight of the circuit at over 200 mph, and he was barely hurt after that accident!. I can tell u one thing, it was kind of De Ja Vu for Webber. Cuz, he was involved in an incident like that on the pace lap of the 1999 24 Hours of Le Mans, driving one of the Mercedes CLRs. all and all...DAMN!

[CRuleProductions]

Aussie's, tough.

[MrAussiebogan]

the fia is looking to bridge the gap next season between the fastest and slowest car, i think it stands aroung the 8kmp/h mark at the moment, they are also looking at adjustable rear wings,

[WhereEaglesDareWWII]

He even hit the DHL sign ! - I'm just glad Webber is safe.

[CryStalez]

holy shiit

[deperer]

David Coulthard was an absolute disgrace trying to defend Webber and blame it on Kovy. I thought the BBC was ment to be unbiased? Clearly he wasn't, with his Red Bull links.

[OZYSTEVE1]

thank goodness the car was upside down when he hit that DHL sign.....cause if it had hit him on the helmet.........game over. Webber was closing on a much slower car, the slower car should be out of the way, unfortunately, to me it appeared they danced, left then right, following each other.....with the pace the Red Bull had over the other car, inevitable coming together......glad everyone is ok.

[ls1jjones]

Webber's fault. Kovalinen was off the racing line while Webber was slipstreaming Kovalinen. Webber should have moved to the left side of the track sooner in preparation for the upcoming chicane.

[griffin911]

@ls1jjones No. Kovalainen braked a good 80 metres before Webber's braking point, he was braking later than that on previous laps so he had no need to brake so early.

[fantarule]

@griffin911 Kovy is not to blame, even Webber has said that. Its just a racing incident! Kovy is defending his position, hes braking where he feels he needs to and its just earlier than where Webber would of braked, so they came together. Theres nobody to blame!

[ls1jjones]

@griffin911 I don't believe theres any telemetry that shows Kovalinen was braking - he had just let off the throttle. Rule #1 to being lapped is to not make any sudden movements. Fortunately Kovalinen was off the racing line so he only needed to watch Webber pass in his mirrors. Webber decided to run up the back of Kovalinen off the racing line, Kovalinen realized Webber seemed to want to the right of him and made a move accordingly. I like Webber but this was a drving error after a poor start.

[MrAussiebogan]

@ls1jjones i believe it was kovalinens fault, purely because he came out and said he was defending his position, now why would a car 4seconds off race lap pace and a car thet gets knocked out of Q1 nearly ever race qualifing try and defend a much faster car, webber qualified second, where as kovalinen qualified 20th, kovalinens car fits into the B class category where as webbers is in the A class, thankfully no one was injured,

[marduke83]

@MrAussiebogan - I agree with everything except technically it was not Kovalainens fault (just bad judgement), it was for race position and he had the right to defend (which he said he was doing), But he really should have known better than to defend against a class A car who was as you said 4 seconds quicker per lap.

And to ls1jjones, Kovalainen was defending for race position he said after the crash that he was defending against Mark, not Marks fault at all.

[saltedpeanut2]

There was a bit of get out of my way in that !! what a fuckwit !!

[grantxz1]

you can say that again..REDBULL does give you wings...Go Mclaren!!!

[FLSUN77]

10 years ago webber would never have walked away from that accident...a credit to the safety of the cars

[TommyBellingham]

70% Webbers fault

[jraybay]

Wish I had a dollar for all you losers who think the quote " redbull gives you wings" is funny here.

[p35neo2]

@jraybay the fact u thought that was worth writing makes u the loser.

[jraybay]

Why? did you find the joke outrageously funny? Dont be offended because I called out an overused and unoriginal quote.

[jraybay]

"Red bull gives you wings" HA look at me Im funny and original : D .

[nightstalker101]

holy shit he went so high he hit the DHL sign

[leylandcarsloverslea]

That is his 3rd time doing end over end in a top level racecar. His first two times were in the Mercedes CLR in 1999.

[squizz299]

@leylandcarsloverslea the accident in the Mercedes was due to poor manufacturing, not driver error. There were no other cars involved like this one

[leylandcarsloverslea]

@squizz299 Yeah, I'm just saying that it is his third time actually flying up like that in a race.

[FoggyEFCfoy]

He just walked away as nothing happened

[gsxrjock74]

twat

[titaniumtori]

Webber definitely had wings in his red bull crash today

[gumbyf1]

Brain fade from Webber...

[MrVideoRater1]

90% Heikki for baulking and not sticking to the racing lane

10% Mark for going for a gap that wasn't really there

[fantarule]

@MrVideoRater1 Heikki did nothing wrong, hes allowed to defend his position and is not required to stick to the racing line as they were racing. Had Webber of been lapping him that would be the situation, but they were racing for position. In the end its a racing incident

[Huntsman74]

@fantarule Totally agree. Im a big Webber fan and have been following him for the past 14 years. This was racing incident, Heikki was ahead of him in a motor race....when your racing your aim is to stay ahead of your opposition. No slower car/driver should move over (unless being lapped).

[MizzHelena]

horror gasps and shock.. Mark Webber is so lucky to have walked from that unscathed.. not the first time he has viewed the world upside down either .. Mark U are true AUSSIE GRIT!

[petercrouch6ft7]

Was shocked into silence :O :O

as a Hamilton fan i want to see Red Bull fail but at the moment it happened i thought he was dead

doesnt have the best of luck Mark does he Le Mans 99 Brazil 03 crash breaking his leg 09 and now this

[guguigugu]

and he just walked away!!

F1, FTW

[Keidoupe]

I watched this moment at 5:20 pm.. now its 12:45 am and iam STILL SHOCKED !

[functioningalcoholic]

gave you a linky on total-formula1

[Ricsoati123]

The flying kangaroo! Dario Franchitti, "The Flying Scotsman", did the same years ago in IndyCar.

[smokieboi2k98]

It is amazing that Webber walked away from this crash virtually unscathed!!!! Thanks to Jackie Stewart and all the other pioneers of F1 motor racing!!!! and their fights for improved saftey in the sport.

[snoozes21]

@smokieboi2k98  My jaw litterally dropped and I couldn´t quite believe my eyes when he just walked away from it. Just proves that F1 cars acctually are safe.

[mrfro35]

i like pie

[soulcornflake1]

I can't believe he walked away from that.

[ikey158]

Christ, he hit the sign, he went high, lol

[Alphagrawusel2003]

stupid Marc webber!!!!

[LMTR14]

fuck red bull

[viraj2k]

The rest of the teams will be on to this video, pausing and zooming to have a clear look and the RBR diffuser design !

[JCAH123]

i saw this and for him to just walk out without a scratch show how safe them cars are compared to the older ones

[pattaya3434]

dgdg

[aro433]

But he was fighting for position?

[minihulk69]

@aro433 yes it was for position

[aro433]

@minihulk69 ok. Kovalainen was right to defend his position.. bad for webber!!

[RobinvdTube]

wow awesome crash! i hope that webber is doing fine ;-)

[akros7]

is in order, something else will show

[fantarule]

@RobinvdTube What do you mean awesome crash!? Its a horrific and shocking crash!

[san93laterz]

damn. Red Bull gives you wings.

[000fabien]

@san93laterz nice

[CryStalez]

@san93laterz hahaha..love it

[1Moregano1]

@san93laterz

ok, that is hilarious

[aussieguitarist]

just like 24 hour race in mercedes years ago in germany

[nitel10]

@aussieguitarist

[usernamealredytaken]

This is a metaphor for australian sport right now

[goooneygoogoo]

this couldve been much much worse. glad he's alright.

[lemcoe9]

Seeing this makes me very sad. I'm very glad he is alive and well.

[atox88]

hes a lucky guy to survive this

[Salsafun32]

Wings Indeed... but they got to get those Radical Side-Effects of It In-Control, LOL

[pve12345]

Redbull gives you wings.... haha

[MrMessilover]

omg :'( i dont now wath to say i see it to on tv
