Jari-Matti Latvala Crash on Day 2
Posted by WRC - 21/08/11 06:55AM - 0 Comments - WRC - ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
Here is the Latvala explain for the crash:"At the end of a sixth-gear straight I braked for a fourth-gear left-right series of bends. There was a big cut on the inside and at the end of the cut was a tree stump, which I hadn’t noticed. I went deeper into the cut than in the first pass and clipped the stump. I felt the impact and should have slowed immediately because when I braked at the end of the next 100-metre straight, I realised the front-right tyre was flat. We were passengers but I managed to put the car sideways before we went off the road and hit a tree on Miikka's side. It wasn't a massive impact but the car was about three metres from the edge of the road and down a small bank." He will back in day 3 to fight again for points.
