Lamborghini Aventador Causes Fire


Everyone know that the exhaust of the Lamborghini Aventador is a truly hot flamethrower and so you should be careful where you rev the engine! During a Lamborghini event held in Dubai to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the brand, a white Aventador caused a fire while revving very close to the bushes.

Dubai's Fire Brigade gets a Corvette C7


That's right, Dubai is doing it big, everyone know that. Lately, they have spent a load of money to make the ultimate Police supercars fleet (with cars such as the Lamborghini Aventador or the Aston Martin One-77), and now it looks like time to upgrade also the fleet of their fire brigade.

Supercars trailer on fire



I've come across recent news from Thailand regarding more supercars on fire and guess what, it involves a Ferrari and a Lamborghini. Nothing new to be honest, but during the fire the trailer was transporting a 430 Scdueria, a Murcielago LP640 as well as a couple of Bentley Flying Spurs, a BMW X6M and more german cars. The causes of the fire are still unknown, but from this video we can see how the flames have erupted and caused several damages.

Lamborghini Aventador on fire

Although the Lamborghini Aventador is 4WD, you need to be careful if you want to unleash safely its 700hp even on a rainy day. The story took place in Taiwan and apparently, the driver was trying to impress the passenger, a pornstar called Peng Xuanrong, but something went wrong. The car lost the control and caught on fire. Well, we can say that the date with the pornstar turned out hotter than expected. As you can see in the pictures below, the interior as well as the back side of the car are completely gone and to make it worse, the car wasn't even insured.

Lamborghini Miura on fire



This is something that a petrolhead would never desire to see in his life and it's the worst nightmare for the owner of a truly expensive and rare vehicle such as the Lamborghini Miura SV in the following video. For unknown reasons, this Miura SV caught on fire in London and unfortunately nobody had an extinguisher in order to douse the flames. To make it worse, the traffic didn't helped the operations of the firefighters and it sadly means that not so much has been saved from what is considered to be the first supercar in the automotive history.

2013 starts badly for a Ferrari owner

In Russia, a Ferrari owner has inaugurated the new year with some expensive fireworks, as the flames have erupted from the engine bay of his F430. Witnesses have reported to have heard the sound of an explosion, and it could have been fireworks since it was the New Year's Day, but then out the window they have noticed the Ferrari on fire. The amateur video shows also the firefighters coming to extinguish the expensive fireworks, but as we can see from the pictures and video below, there's not so much to be saved.

Straight Piped Aventador sounds awesome!


One of the best features of the Lamborghini Aventador is certainly its exhaust note coming from the 6.5L V12 engine. Stock exhaust is noisy enough for a supercar, and when it's hot, it spits flames. However there are owners that want more, and this matte black Aventador looks, and sounds much more menacing with a straight muffler, that is able to spit huge flames with a light touch of the throttle!

P4/5 Competizione on fire

Just a moment of danger, luckily with no injuries or damages. A little unexpected accident while filling up the P4/5 Competizione during the 24h Nurburgring endurance caused a fire, it happened all in just a matter of seconds but thanks to the fast assistance the car was just a bit darker, even the hand of a technician caught on fire but he didn't noticed because it was on his fire-proof suit.

A very intense day for Williams F1

Today has been a day full of action and emotions for team Williams F1. After 8 years a new victory has arrived, thanks to the south american racing driver Pastor Maldonado that sat for his first time on the highest step of the podium. The result of today is motivating for the whole team and sir Frank Williams, it shows also that this team is growing and the car is going well.


The joy of this important result has been suddendly stopped due to a huge fire that took place in Williams' F1 box. The fire has been caused by a malfunction of the KERS system of Bruno Senna's F1, within a few minutes burning everything was inside the box. Looks like five technicians have been injured, the material damages caused by the fire are large, a victory that leaves a bad taste in mouth.

In the following videos you can see the exact moment of the accident and the team that is trying to extinguish :
