Race 1 Thruxton 'Dont Read if you don't want results'
- Thread starter Markos1972
- Start date
Just watching the live timings,in between watching the GT racing,and see the safety car has just popped out.See it doesnt seem to be going well at all?
Edited the title, as some folks might want to find out later on ITV3.
But Plato had some issue on the grid. Mechanic was a bit slow getting off the grid, so Plato got a drive thru penalty, after lap one. But is currently fighting back thru the field. 7th as i type this.
Turner had a big off at the chicane with Matt Allison's Toledo. Leon looks mullered at the front, hopefully not too much damage and it will get out for race 3.
Allison's Toledo was thrown fully into the air by the tyre wall impact, it was a huge off! Both drivers appear to be ok though.

No worries Z,never thought about that,was wondering what had happened-with a few cars sitting 5 laps behind.
Oh bugger didnt know-what a day for motorsport-DTM and Le Mans series on Motors tv,FIA GT on Men and motors,BTCC on Itv soon.I love Sundays...
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.

Is that what it was-was watching the live timings,and saw that 5 were involved in some incident soon after the start.
Yes. Absolutely incredible crash. Not seen anything that bad for years. How no-one was hurt was incredible. Good job it wasn't a spectator section for sure. Marshalls will no doubt need a clean change of underwear too.
