Terrible marshalling, if it wasnt for a fellow competitor actually offering aid it could have been much worse. The driver uninjured was lucky he was not trapped and suffered a terrible cremation.

Reminded me of Elio De Angleis Death in testing at Paul ricard in 1986.

He was trapped and car burning and otherwise only had a cracked rib.

But marshalling at test days in the late 80's was poor, but i wouldnt expect it these days... Appalling

outrageous! Surely, the track would (should!) have been littered with fire extinguishers, if not trained marshalls!
