This Radical Driver Miraculously Survived This Huge Eau Rouge Crash

The Radical European Masters series headed to Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium, last weekend, but the race was shortened to just six laps after this horrendous shunt. Car 29, driven by Marcello Marateotto, suffered a puncture at the worst possible time: in the middle of Eau Rouge.

The car spun out of control and flew into and over the tyre barrier, narrowly missing a marshal post. The race was immediately red-flagged as emergency teams tended to the driver. Incredibly, Marateotto was released from hospital the next day.
