Default Castle Combe action day crash

Nasty crash at Combe on Saturday - BMW crashes into rear of another car (EP3) and rolls multiple times!

Usual Action day carnage.

was just trying to find out info.

Few posts reckon the female passenger passed away then others say she didn't. Apparently her seatbelt and helmet came off as well.

Did the civic brake? Not nice, and yeah, it's almost like the BM didn't even see him there and was just going for the apex like the track was empty...

I heard the passenger was a young lass and she is seriously ill in hospital.

I think there was way too many cars on track and the bm driver was driving like a dick...

BMW clearly an idiot. No need to be behaving like that on a track day ffs.

It's people like that are the very reason I stopped doing trackdays years ago. Just too many dangerous idiots.

it looks like the civic seen the BMW in the mirror driving like a nut in his left mirror so braked a little to let him pass. But then the prick in the BMW dived right. That's just downright stupid and dangerous.
