    Di Grassi's Flip from 2005

    As the interest in F3 around here seems to be limited to me and Fahad ( ) I thought perhaps a few of you might have missed this spectacular accident from the 2005 F3 Euroseries (1st round at Hockenheim I think).

    No injuries so it's safe to watch.



    (And for the F1 fans this race was won rather comfortably by Lewis Hamilton in front of Adrian Sutil.)

    Yeah, he definitely braked a bit sooner than Di Grassi.

    Van der Garde seemed to be moving a lot to block Di Grassi right into the braking zone.

    In the words of the commentator "Ein absoluter Horrorunfall". I'm glad he was alright, and that most of the speed was absorbed because of the large area beside the track.

    I am surprised to see him jump and walk just after the crash.
