I heard he had to be cut from the car, which hit a concrete block sticking out at apex of a corner. Can someone confirm his injuries are not serious? And did the design of the course contribute to the seriousness of the incident (again!) ?Quote:

Just watched the incar and it had nothing to do with the jump. He landed off the jump and turned in early on the next turn and it looks like part of the barrier is just barely sticking out and he was way too close and caught it. Sorry I tried to find a link to post it but it didn't work.
Hope Marcus recovers quickly. Also wonder if Citroen would consider pulling the plug on loeb driving. I doubt they see any benefit from risking Sebs health for a weekend when he is looking at another championship.
do you have a link to the crash?
Here is the best I can do. Why Gap jumps are stupid
The vid of Marcus is near the bottom.

Note sure about being cut from the car.
Regarding Toomas, photographers and media are not allowed to approach the car. The help did seem to come a bit late, but the context of space is not known, nor the relation of crews to the ramp.
It is getting rather embarrassing, the safety of this event....
