World Rally Championship series leader Sebastien Loeb has spectacularly crashed out of the Acropolis Rally in Greece, as this footage shows. The incident happened yesterday, on the opening stage of day two. Loeb, recently awarded France’s highest civilian honour, was the Acropolis winner in 2008 and his chances of defending that title were well and truly smashed to pieces with this high speed accident.
Thankfully, Loeb and co-driver, Daniel Elena, are okay with both men able to immediately free themselves from the wreckage. Ford’s Mikko Hirvonen currently leads the rally.
Extra footage of Loeb’s crash can be seen on the Eurosport website.
