    An eyewitness told DirtFish: “Craig was going very, very well this morning. He did a lot of runs very quickly. He was caught by a left turn, not a fast one, but there was a bridge. He touched the bridge a little bit and this sent the car to the right and off the road.


    “There was half a spin and then the car rolled down the ravine. It stopped on its roof. It would be around 10 or 15 meters from the road down to the car.”

    Looked a bit unlucky, certainly with where he ended up. The glancing blow didn’t even look like it broke the steering, just deflected him into the bank. Let’s hope it’s just superficial damage.

    I wonder if those fans right by the roadside distracted him slightly...

    No, spectators are like that all the time on Monte tests

    Reminded me a bit of Makinen in Corsica 2001, ended the career of his co-driver (Mannisenmaki) even without falling down the slope.

    Sure speeds were different, but "innocent" glancing blow can end pretty badly. ( https://youtu.be/qXj-T8AOYuk?t=30 )
