As it turns out, the young driver who crashed the McLaren P1 in Dallas, Texas, on Wednesday, had taken delivery of the brand-new, $1.15 million hyper-car just the previous day!
That could be a new record time in the realm of exotic supercar crashes…
On a more serious note, the 27-year old driver and owner of the McLaren and his 24-year old passenger were injured in the crash and were transferred Parkland Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to a KHOU report.
The accident happened on McKinnon Street Wednesday morning, with troopers called to the scene at around 7:40 am. Investigators told reporters that the unnamed driver “lost control and hit a guardrail after driving over a wet spot in the road”.
