Huge off just now for Kelvin Burt in the Porsche race.
He got turned over on lap one, and the car rolled several times then leaped the crash fencing. Narrowlly missing both the camera man (who stayed in focus) and then 2or3 marhshalls on the other side of the fence.
Kelvin appears to be fine and has been taken out of the car, and no doubt will be taken off to hospital for checks. Though he was talking in the car with the doctor, and his helmet was off. Lucky escape, bet he's sore in the morning.
But it was fairly spectacular to see a 911 leaping the crash fencing while rolling too.
Watching live on Setanta Sports, but most likely it will be shown on Motorsport UK later in the year.
Touring cars race 3 at Thruxton. Live now on ITV3
Watching the live timings here at the same time-JP average speed of over 103 mph...
