Huge crash Stephane Ortelli in the LMS Monza

[RAM_anderson]

Yesterday Stephane Ortelli in the no. 5 Team Oreca Matmut Courage-Oreca LC70 had a huge crash during the LMS on Monza. The car suffered an apparent mechanical failure, snapping sideways on the high speed front straight. It then became airborne, cartwheeling over the No. 1 Audi of Allan McNish and rolling a total of seven times into the guardrail fence. The car is destroyed, with the engine and undertray ripping from the chassis.
