WHERE’S THE BRAKE?!

Those racing in motorsport are considered to be the best drivers in the world (I know shocker!), with lightning quick reaction times. For those still in doubt of this fact take a look at footage of Touring Car Champion Tom Chilton’s near miss with his teams transport truck…

A YouTube hit, with over 10,000 hits already I think it’s classic case of don’t try this at home!

Whilst near misses such as this are part of the appeal for any petrolhead it’s also important to remember these guys have extremely dangerous jobs, unfortunately highlighted by reports that Henry Surtees has been involved in an accident at this weekend’s Brands Hatch F2 race. I’m sure you join me in wishing him a speedy and safe recovery.
