Stéphane Ortelli looses control of his Courage-Oreca LMP1 at a speed of 315 km/h during the 1000 km of Monza, 2nd round of the Le Mans Series. He escapes with only an injured ankle (small fractures).
Update: Apparently the cause of the crash was not brakes but a wing failure (also was reported later that it was suspension failure):
