Possible ABS Failure Leads To Flying Seat Ibiza At The Nurburgring
This Ibiza driver suffered a massive lock-up on the Nordschleife, leading to painful Amrco contact
What we have here is a Nurburgring crash that’s a little more unusual than the power oversteer-induced Corvette smash we saw last week. It’s strange because as the little Seat comes into the frame, it looks as though it should make the corner.
Regardless, the driver slams on the brakes - perhaps out of panic - and for whatever reason, the ABS doesn’t function. Maybe it was a failure, or it could have been somehow disabled, but the end result is the same - the car stops turning and goes straight on, right into the Armco barrier. Ouch.
Thankfully, the occupants - unlike the two people in the Corvette crash - quickly get themselves out of harm’s way.

Flying by the SEAT of your pants.
Idiot goes deep into the turn and locks the brakes while turning…
love how the M135i behind it is smoking from the brakes
I went back to the video after reading your comment and wasn’t disappointed. Thanks !
Just to add insult to injury… it looks like the driver dropped his phone when getting out of the car
turns ABS off in forza for the first time
