Renault Clio RS Crashes Hard And Rolls Over At The 'Ring

A Clio RS200 driver's touristenfahrten session went badly wrong at the weekend, with an off-track excursion at Schwedenkreuz leading to a destructive rollover crash

If we see something about a Renault crashing at the Nurburgring, we normally assume it’s to do with a Megane RS. There have been some sickening high-profile crashes involving examples of Renault’s third-generation hot Megane, but this time around, the touristenfahrten destruction involves the car’s little brother: the Clio RS200.

In this dramatic footage, the Clio enters the frame sideways at the tricky Schwedenkreuz section of the Nordschleife, before tearing across the grass. The car then slams into the barrier on the opposite side of the track, rolling over twice(ish) and clattering back onto the tarmac wheels down first.

Thankfully, it looks like the driver and passenger are up and walking around shortly after the crash, hopefully having avoided serious injury.

Say what you want about stereotypes, in the meantime the first dudes leaving are the BMW drivers

That’s me in the Honda Type R-they both walked away but both were pretty shaking up. A lot of hate on the internet concerning why we stopped. I’m not going to comment on how many people stopped (there were too many people) nor can I comment on why one was cleaning debris from the track (?!?!?) but I personally was concerned for the driver’s safety. Once I had a good feeling both him (and his passenger) were okay, I drove off. We all know the risks going to the track but it was hard to run at Spa the following day with this in mind. Be careful everyone!

Yea , so How many people (cars) does it take , to take care about that one maybe two persons in the clio ? 10 ?
Call me an “Arse” but If I would´ve seen there are allready two or three cars parking with people getting out .. I´d kept going .. there no need to park 10 or more cars on the gras while this is the only way “through” the accident.

I’m going to this track. I probably shouldn’t be seeing this.
