Ouch, looks like he turned in a little to soon and just ran out of room

That hill just before the wreck is where those pictures of the airborn C6 Z06 were taken. You've got to get over that bump, get the car settled, then take that corner a lot faster than it looks like you can.

Getting t-boned by the car following him didn't help. If you ever wanted to learn how to swear in Deutche, this is your chance.

That bump is "Flugplatz" - aka Airport. Too much air and hang time. He sounded a bit pi$$ed.

looks like there was fluid on the track starting on the hill he came up right before he crashed...

also looks like the car he hit after his crash was already parked there...could have been the cause of the fluid or another car that wrecked in it...
