BMW M235i Gets Up Close And Personal With The Camera In This 'Ring Crash

Three M235i race cars got caught up in a nasty crash during this VLN race, as seen in this dramatic footage

This triple Nurburgring VLN crash looks bad enough on this video - with the number 668 car slamming into the barrier right where the camera is stood - but the worst of it is actually just out of the frame. The video’s uploader explains that 668 rolled over (hardly surprising giving the way it launches away from the shot) while number 695 suffered a “triple flip roll-over” before hitting a catch fence. Ouch.

We’ve not been able to find any firm reports about the conditions of the drivers after the incident, but the consensus in the comments section of the video seems to be that only one ended up in hospital, with relatively minor injuries.

As for the cars, we can 668 and 695 hauled away on trucks later in the video, and it’s not a pretty sight…

Someone must have thought he was playing Race Driver: GRID on a different sort of racing wheel.
