Second Major Crash at Pukekohe Intl Raceway
There has been another crash at the V8 Supercar meet at Pukekohe.
Australian driver John Bowe failed to take a corner during race two just after midday and crashed into a safety barrier. A press photographer standing behind the barrier was hit and has been taken to hospital with a suspected broken leg.
The crash follows Saturday’s spectacular incident in which two Porsches collided in a support race, and one of them flipped over the safety fence and landed in front of the front row of the grandstand. There were no injuries to members of the crowd in that incident, although driver Dean Fulford was stretchered off the track.
Motorsport New Zealand is adamant that safety measures at the raceway are more than adequate.
