I know, not the fault of Porsche, but you know they will be listed in the lawsuits sad.gif

I always wonder what the background is for these people who decide to buy super cars and why they want them....I mean, really, they never drive like a Camry or Focus...they deserve respect when driving them...so why buy them?

"Paul and Selena Bailey (pictured) made their fortune when they sold the communications company they founded for £28million in 2012"

Looks like they will be working a regular job again.

All the money in the world will not make you a capable driver for equipment like that, that has to be learned. These people who just write a check think its easy...

good thing they lined the course with those highly effective styrofoam T rails.......??

I remember watching a video of him picking up his special edition 918...


That event looks seriously suspect.... I agree foam blocks when the driver is obviously going over 60mph?

I don't get it. Contrast it with the James Dean crash.

Difference: today's lawyers, courts, and contributory negligence.

Whoops, looks like he got in the grass, never trust a moveable metal fence at a 'race' event.

I'm sorry to hear about this accident. I actually met this couple last year, I was at the same dinner table with them at an event in the U.K. in 2014 (back when I lived over there) Paul and his wife Selena are serious Super Car collectors, they are very nice people and were really down to earth, I had no idea who he was until I googled him after I got home that night. Anyway, I had a great evening talking with them. I pray that the injured spectators survive this horrible accident.

Interesting how the "reporter" has to mention millionaire and cost of the vehicle...hope she is proud that she has to sensationalize the headline to get more views!
