The spectators at last weekend’s ADAC GT Masters championship at the Nürburgring witnessed a horrific crash involving Alex Plenagl and his BMW Alpina B6 GT3 racecar when the driver lost control of the vehicle and strayed off the course at a high speed.
Plenagl’s Alpina flew over the safety barriers, passed through a BMW sign and crashed onto the concrete wall.
If there is one thing that surprised us more than the accident itself, it is the amazing safety credentials of the Alpina racecar as despite the severity of the crash, Plenagl managed to escape unhurt. Watch the video for yourself below.
