Thanks to Mattzel, we can see on the video Davidson getting out of the car by himself.
But still wonder if he's injured or not. That kind of crash is the better way to broke vertebras.

So, three big shunts in two years because of the LMP1 cars hitting the GT cars, irrespective of blame. Wonder if ACO will look into that.

Thx! If anyone has the live English Eurosport footage you can always post. Their commentary (in combination with the previous action) was just brilliant.

In all of the flips that has happened since 2008, everytime the car has become sideways first. Mercedes flips were design failures. Stop comparing them :lol:

And as you can see: the new technical rules that should prevent cars flying like this did NOT WORK!!

They have prevented potential flips several times already though.

The way he gets out of the car reminds me of Schumacher in Silverstone '99, he may have some leg damage IMHO :(

Annoying that none of the Eurosport replays stick around for long enough to see the full Ferrari flip...

Not like they're missing much, why cut it off when it was on its side? :?

Mulsanne Mike Fuller makes a good point: A little focus though: this was WORST case: top speed and sudden yaw.
