Fack!

 

[Dan R]

Sh*t!!!

 

[Scott™]

Ouch.

 

[MAT ED30]

He ok ?

 

[D4N13L]

Not as easy as zooming around a mile wide dis-used airport

 

[Nickson]

Oh shiiit!

 

[Englebert]

Can't have 1,000 goes either

TBF, it was probably his giant sunglasses' fault...

If that had landed on the roof it would have been really bad times. even with a roll cage!

 

[Fletcher]

Opps

 

[Stava]

lol

 

[mr.valver]

If your going to crash, do it with some style!!

It did?

Nasty crash. Fingers crossed he's OK as I like the other videos he does. Some talent in those, but maybe more than his rallying skills!

 

[Philip.]

Fuuuuck that. Couldn't J turn out of that could you Ken

 

[Kane.]

Both reported to be un injured

 

[Andy.]

If you are going to do something, do it properly! LOL at the Italian co-drivers instructions too, I'd go nuts if I had to listen to that.

 

[Gaz.]

What a shame.

 

[Black Phoenix]

I saw that crash live on the field. In the video looks a little more "soft" that the reality.

 

[DynamoDave]

I love it when people bash his ability on here!

He's rich and loves cars so is doing what a lot of us would love to do given half the chance.

So he's perhaps not on the same level as some of the other guys in the WRC that have got there based on pure skill but he had the cash to get him where he wants and have fun.

Hats off to him I say.

 

[recaro182]

Proper job.

Luckily all of the energy was dissapated in the rolling by the looks of it and didn't look like he hit anything solid.

 

[Jon.G]

That was big!

I bet.

I've seen a mini roll and that wasn't pretty in person.

 

[Ash87]

[Eliganza]

This. i would love a life like that. Nasty crash though

 

[Dave..]

Bad accident. The rolling will still f**king hurt even if he didn't hit anything.

Hope he's alright tbh.

 

[Wests Renault]

bugger!

 

[guysy]

Bet his head was spinning!

Like the bloke regardless, glad no one was badly hurt.

[silentsnake]

Doing it wrong

 

[chrispy.clio]

I bet after he did his usual yeeee harrrr, wwooooohoooo American thing!

 

[Knuckles]

Imagine if that was a fiat 500! f**k me that was mad

 

[Gaz85]

ouch that looks a nasty one glad they are ok!

 

[jonw279]

Ken Block: Just got back home. I'm doing OK. Alex and I are just a bit sore. Luckily, the crash bruised my ego more than it did my body. We really appreciate the well wishes from everyone. That crash was extra brutal.

Just seen what he posted up on his facebook page.

Epic crash tho defiantly done it in style!

 

[Djw John]

Thats approaching McRae levels of crashing now! LOL when people **** off his skills, you cant say he's a bad driver and even the very good ones make mistakes!

 

[MarcoB]

I bet he didnt keep on driving though? Plus you cant compare him to mcrae thats just wrong, hes in a different league.

 

[Djw John]

I think I can when it comes to spectacular crashing!

Thankyou! Somebody actually speak's sense.

As said, okay he's not the best rally driver in the world... He's still a pretty decent driver though, although clearly not as good as most folk on this forum 'ey!

Hope him and his co-driver are fine! Wouldn't wish a crash like that on anyone.

 

[d4nmc]

Typical Ken Block CS bashing in here tbh, quite sad.

I'm sure half of you think you would "have him in the twisities" in your 1*2.

It's good to see he's ok

 

[Gavin.]

ooft, not winning.
