Looks like Gene's Peugeot wreckage after his airborne crash at the test day couple of years ago (2010?).
Suppose this happened just before marshals post 120b on drivers left, crash must have been a bit before that... |

I wonder if they can repair that car in time for ther race ... looks like a write-off from here. Hope Loic Duval is okay.

Car is covered up now, so Duval must be out.

Audi obviously has spare tubs. Most important thing is that Loic isn't seriously injured or worse here. Not much news on if he's OK or what medical attention he's receiving as of yet.

First off I hope Duval is okay. Now to your point, does Audi have another tub ready and if Duval is out for the rest of the weekend who would take his place?

Looks like Duval is fine. I saw his helmet moving inside the Ambulance. And the Amubulance is driving pretty slowly for it to be anything serious.

If that's the case, that's great news. But if a mechanical failure caused the accident and there's worry that it wasn't fluke deal, Audi might have to withdraw their cars out of safety concerns.

@dsceditor @marceltencaat I only saw the angle it went in at, it wasn't nice. Looked roof first on its side into the barriers. |
