Video: BMW M3 driver survives incredible crash


Joey Hand suffers for dangerous circuit design

Here’s a clip from the 2005 Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series, at the Mid-Ohio track in Lexington, Ohio. BMW M3 driver Joey Hand is punted off the track and rides over what appears to be an ill-placed bump/ ramp in the run-off area, sending him flying through the air.

Amazingly, the Californian driver was missing a glove and a shoe when he was pulled out of the wreck, but was otherwise uninjured.

Aston Martin DBS in the brand new Quantum of Solace trailer


Check out the latest 007 car chase

The folks behind the James Bond franchise may have picked a god-awful name for the latest film, but they more than make up for it with their choice of automobiles.

The brand new Quantum of Solace trailer may feature Olga Kurylenko behind the wheel of a naff golden Ford Ka - hopefully it won’t get a lengthy appearance like the Ford Mondeo did in Casino Royale - but it also gives us a glimpse at the gorgeous Aston Martin DBS that Danny Craig became acquainted with last time round.

Frankly, I’m so excited about this film that I could shit a squirrel - roll on October 31st!

Grid Crasher extra: The bond stuntmen wrote off an Aston martin in spectacular style back in April - check out footage of the recovered wreck after the jump…

MotoGP star Nicky Hayden busts ankle in X-Games


Honda won’t like that

Nicky Hayden won’t compete at this weekend’s Czech MotoGP after damaging his ankle during the recent X-Games. Hayden injured his right heel after landing heavily following a jump during practice for the Supermoto event.

The American rider, a former MotoGP world champ, had been given special permission from his Honda bosses to take part in the event - bet they wish they’d turned down his request.

“I just wanted to do some riding during the break, have some fun and I thought that maybe it’d give me a little spark for the rest of the season, but it backfired on me,” Hayden said, more sheepishly than a sheepish sheep.
