日前於TT賽道舉辦的Boss GP活動中
Klass Zwart駕駛的2004年Jaguar R5 Cosworth賽車不幸撞毀
人沒事，但車就完蛋了......因為沒有備料
PS：Boss GP是一項開放單座且輪胎外露的賽車活動
At a recent Boss GP event at the TT Circuit in Assen, Netherlands, a
one-of-a-kind Jaguar Formula 1 car suffered a potentially career-ending
crash. Taking to the track this past weekend for practice during the Gamma
Racing Days event, the Jag was being driven by multi-millionaire and founder
of the former Ascari supercar company, Klass Zwart, when the accident
occurred.
According to The Drive, Zwart was driving the 2005 Jaguar R5 Cosworth F1 car
– wearing its original green, white, and red HSBC livery – quickly around
the track when he approached a slower driver from behind. Attempting to pull
alongside the driver following a sharp left-hand corner, Zwart was forced off
of the track, pushing the classic Jaguar onto the grass, causing the car to
spin around backwards, and launch over a curb.
After striking a retaining wall, the car eventually came to a halt on its
roof. Thankfully Zwart walked away from the incident completely unharmed...
though the same can’t be said for the car. The transmission, suspension, and
bodywork were damaged beyond repair, with no available spare parts on hand.
The embedded Instagram gallery below shows photos and videos of the wreck
from start to finish.
The Boss GP is a single-seat racing series that is open to any and all
open-wheel race cars, making for a healthy variety of modern and classic
racers alike. Rumors suggest that Zwart could consider retiring from the
series due to incompetent drivers, this latest wreck should be proof of that.
