David Besnard has survived a horrifying accident at Griffiths Bend, Mount Panorama. On lap 113, the #17 Jim Beam Black Falcon collected the tyre wall at unabated speed, ripping open the fuel cell and setting off a huge fire.

  • It has been said but they did a great job getting him out. For anyone wondering it was later confirmed that he forgot to pump the pedal, i think due to a radio malfunction (not being able to remind him) and of course simply forgetting.

  • @AlgonquinCelebrity96 ah very true

  • @crosshairs3 It would have been possibly a brake component from the rear of the car, they get extremely hot, and where the fire started is around where the back of the car slammed into the wall

  • Nigh on unparalleled courage from the track marshals... Top job fellas. Was great when the commentators mentioned their efforts as well.

  • High-risk game, or less good at this game, too dangerous

  • that was ok but it sucks that it was a ford no offence to all the holden people their new cars cool

  • bloody good work by the marshals make me proud of my fellow marshals

  • V8 Supercars has to learn from nascar how to build a good fuel cell. Nascar has done a Pretty good job!! Hope V8 supercars does too!

  • @NCB619 7HD logo was used for the 7mate coverage, 7HD as a channel no longer exists.
