Pretty nasty crash, bit of a novice mistake to make for an F1 driver IMO.

You can download it here (http://home01.wxs.nl/~wisse223/Antonio_Pizzonia_crashing_a_Jaguar_road_car_at_150 mph.asf)
He tried to take the turn at maximum speed...like 150mph i believe.

It looked like he had forgotten that the turn was there or he had forgotten what car he was driving.

Yeah, it was Pizziona or how ever you spell it. I know I am no F1 driver, but I can handle a track ok, and I would never have attacked a corner like that....at that speed! Especially in a bloody saloon. It was a good advert for Jag though. For a high speed crash, it did very well. They were in normal seatbelts aswell.
What an asshole like jabba said. Waste of a 60 grand car. Poor baby.

Pizzonia trashes new Jaguar.
Antonio Pizzonia has crashed his first Jaguar, but fortunately neither the young Brazilian or his three passengers were hurt in the incident, which followed the end of official Formula One testing at Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya.
Pizzonia, who signed for Jaguar's F1 last month in place of Eddie Irvine, had endured a fruitless day of testing, but remained at the circuit to conduct passenger rides for the team's corporate guests. The accident occurred the end of the main straight on an otherwise empty circuit, but resulted in the Brazilian rolling over a tyre barrier after spinning at 155mph. The S-type sports car was a write-off, with heavy damage to the roof and side panels.
"From having seen the footage, it looks like he went into the first corner too fast and lost control of the car," team spokesman Nav Sidhu told the BBC, "Thankfully, everybody is okay, but they are all obviously a bit shocked."
Pizzonia and his passengers were taken to the circuit's medical centre, but later released with little more than bruising. The Brazilian is due to remain at the circuit to conduct tyre testing for the team into the weekend.
"Antonio will hopefully carry on tomorrow with some testing duties," Sidhu confirmed.

well he has the point of doing it in the f1 first so he got used to go hellafast, have huge breaking and yada, yada being in a lower position. then getting into a saloon and being nervous trying to impress your boss associates can get you off track for sure. just like forgetin' how a passenger car handles can happen i guess, specially if your tired. either that or :?: :?
