That looked more like it was up over rather than down under.  There was a few end-arounds too...  Glad to hear the driver and spectators weren't seriously injured though!

Absolutely amazing.  Interestingly, the driver was using my lucky number "8" on his MINI.   059

I love the video. It shows how solid and safe the MINI body is.

That could have been so much worse. If it had hit the wall, it might have slowed the car down or even stopped it prior to going over the fence. Then again, there could have been a shower of parts flying into the crowd as well. Either way, those were some damned lucky spectators.
