Clio drivers ehh ;)



  BMW 328 Ci


Taken from a site called f1 rejects about an F1 driver called Taki Inoue

Refusing to let the car be craned away, he asked for a tow which would allow him to compete in second qualifying. Being somewhat embarrassed, he put his helmet on but didnt do up his belts. As his car was taken through the swimming pool section, the session over, French rally ace Jean Ragnotti, taking the Renault Clio safety car out for a spin, clobbered into the back of his Footwork, taking off a chunk of Takis helmet, and destroying the FA16 which rolled. Inoue was lucky to get away with only concussion.

Poor bloke also got hit by a saftey car in the same year, lol.

Having stopped on the edge of the track, his engine steaming, Inoue got out and began to berate the two marshals on the scene for not getting the fire extinguishers out. One of them finally ambled to the armco to get an extinguisher, but Inoue, in a hurry, followed the poor soul and seized the canister from him.

As he turned back towards his stricken Arrows, Inoue failed to see the marshals vehicle heading towards him along the grass, and he was given an almighty clout. Amazingly, he ended up on his feet, but after a moments delayed reaction, he clutched at his broken left leg and fell to the ground. Even more amazingly, one of the marshals on the spot hurriedly took the extinguisher which he had now dropped, and tended to the car, without giving a moments thought to the hapless driver writhing on the deck!
