Action POV with the Pagani Huayra


So, this is probably how the 99,9% of us will get to experience so close the feel to be in the driving seat of the Pagani Huayra! This spectacular first view video shows us Pagani's chief test driver Davide Testi behind the wheel of Pagani's factory Huayra (refreshed with a new golden wrap) being driven like no other could do on track!

Adrian Newey crashes his Lamborghini SuperTrofeo



As you know, racing is dangerous and it's not hard to see an accident on track but what happened to Red Bull's F1 Team Adrian Newey well.. it's just awkward. The last weekend Newey took part to the Lamborghini SuperTrofeo championship at Silverstone and during the warm-up lap he lost the control of the car and crashed into the wall by marking the end of his race. At least, it's not Grosjean's fault this time.

Lucky Ferrari 458 Nearly Crashes



Driving a supercar at Nürburgring is not easy, and if the weather is not optimal, you'd better think twice what you're doing! This Ferrari 458 Italia caught on a rainy day loses the rear at Brünnchen corner, it spins out and nearly crashes into the barriers, but hopefully the italian supercar remains on the tarmac of the track.

Valentino Balboni driving a Ferrari 430 Scuderia



Altough Valentino Balboni retired from his work as test driver, he still collaborates with Lamborghini and it's not hard to find him behind the wheel of a Bull at car events in order to promote the image of the company. Maybe after 40 years of driving Lamborghinis he wanted to try something different, none other than the straight competition such as Ferrari! The video of today shows the master enjoying a drive at MSR Houston track with a Ferrari 430 Scuderia, Mr.Baloni behind the wheel of a Prancing Horse is not something that you see every day!

BRUTAL Lamborghini Crash



Do you remember the pictures I have posted on my Facebook regarding the Lamborghini LP570-4 SuperTrofeo crashed a Monza? Ok, now we have several videos from different points of view of the crash, and damn, that was a brutal accident! The car lost the control in the Ascari chicane and slammed into the barriers, finally we have the confirm that the driver didn't reported injuries, it's pretty impressive to see this accident from the onboard camera.

Radical SR8 Crash



Pushing a car at high speed on a track rather than on a public road is a much safer way to have fun, but that doesn't mean that the worse couldn't happen. There's always the chance to crash if you push the car to the limit and unfortunately that's what happened this time to race driver Miguel Villagomez behind the wheel of a Radical SR8, he loses the control of the car and crashes into the barriers and stops very close to the truck. He didn't got injured, but you can't deny that he has been very lucky in this situation that could have turned worse!

Alonso and Massa in the 458 Italia



Although F1 racing drivers are used to the extreme and incomparable sensations of a Formula 1 car, this video proves that even with a supercar they have huge fun. Just like two kids, Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa keep smiling and laughing while sliding and pushing to the limit a Ferrari 458 Italia on track. Who wouldn't have a big smile while doing stuff like that in a Ferrari?

F40 Blows up on track



Classic supercars are amazing pieces of automotive engineering and history, most of them spend most of their time in a dusty garage because they're delicate and expensive. Hopefully there are people that actually drive them instead of leaving them under a cover, but if something wrong happens, it may be very expensive.. In this video a Ferrari F40 suddendly blows while accelerating in the straight of the track by leaving behind a cloud of smoke. The author of the video claims that the F40 broke one of the two turbos, and the main reason might be because it was tuned with an overboost as he claimed on FerrariChat.

A racetrack in the backyard

There aren't many places in the world where you can drive fast without the worry to lose the driving license. Of course there are racetracks, or even the Isle of Man and the german Autobahn, that are exempt from the speed limits. What if, you're a millionaire and you don't want to move too far to vent your passion for speed? In Australia, a wealthy man called Dean Willis has become popular because of his particular backyard, he has spent around 10 million dollars to build his own private track behind his house!

Ferrari 360 Crashes at Green Hell



If you want to drive to the Nurburgring, make sure you understand that this is possibly the most dangerous racetrack in the world. You can't make mistakes, otherwise the guardrail is very close to you. In this case, a Ferrari 360 Modena lost the control and smashed the nose into the guardrail into a corner, with any marshals or ways to warn the other drivers about the accident, making it a very dangerous situation.

Video: Lamborghini LP560-4 Crashes on track

The video of today shows a GoPro camera on the roof of a friend's Porsche 997 GT3 RS filming in the front his other friend with a Porsche 997 GT3 racing around Imola. The driver of the GT3 was very close to a bad crash. I don't know what the driver of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 was thinking, but he arrived too fast in the braking poin and tried to make the chicane with an awful trajectory, without even considering that there was another car infront of him doing that chicane. The driver of the Porsche was very lucky but also careful, he noticed at last the Lambo coming too fast and so he slowed down.

Stay tuned, soon i will post also the part 2 with the onboard camera from the GT3.

Skip to the minute 4:30 if you don't want to see the whole video..
