This WRC Driver Didn't Let A Missing Wheel Stop Him
WRC privateer Martin Prokop was looking set for a points finish at Rally Spain when he ripped a wheel off his Ford Fiesta RS. But in typical rally driver style, he soldiered on and kept going, eventually retiring two stages from the finish
The video above captures the aftermath of the accident, with Prokop soldiering on with a badly damaged car and tackling the famous roundabout at the end of the Duesaigües stages. Much to the crowd’s enjoyment, of course.
Unsurprisingly, Sebastien Ogier claimed victory at the Spanish WRC round and secured his fourth title in the series.

You wanna bet the driver is actually asriel in a time stint
Maybe he attempted wieght reduction, but didn’t quite think it thru
So he never reTIRED?

Look ma, no wheels!
Reminds me of Need For Speed: Most Wanted 2012 when you run over a spike strip and lose your tires. Except in here you lose your wheel.
Weight reduction bro.
