Here's The Terrifying Moment A Car Smashed Into A Grandstand Full Of Spectators

This horrific accident at Wallerfield race circuit left the driver and three spectators with serious injuries, although they are now reported to be in a stable condition. Jameer Ali, Vice President of the Trinidad and Tobago Automobile Sports Association (TTASA), described the crash as a “freak accident,” and has suggested that the grandstand may be moved to another location. However, what concerns us more than the location of the stand is the pitiful unreinforced tyre wall at the edge of the circuit, which doesn’t even look adequate enough for a kart track.

Unfortunately, it seems safety motorsport standards in the country are particularly low. If you have a search for better quality videos shot at Wallerfield, you’ll find that tiny tyre walls and a lack of catch fencing are common themes at the track.
