Fortunately a small hit, I think one can drive i8 after damage of this scale.

I just noticed yesterday that my windscreen is cracked. Maybe the first windscreen to be changed? We use winter tyres now and a spike flew hard couple days ago while driving freeway. The crack is well over one feet and means windscreen replacement.
