VIDEO: Laurens Vanthoor emerges unscathed after heart-stopping Nurburgring crash

Porsche Star Driver Survives Terrifying Nurburgring Crash

In a heart-stopping moment at the Nurburgring 24, Porsche’s star driver Laurens Vanthoor faced a life-threatening crash that left fans worldwide in shock. The Scherer Sport PHX racer’s Porsche 911 GT3 spun off the track at high speed during the Top Qualifying session, colliding heavily with the guardrail before coming to a halt in the gravel track. The severity of the crash raised serious concerns about Vanthoor’s well-being.

Despite the significant damage to the car, Vanthoor miraculously walked away from the crash site unassisted before receiving medical attention at the on-site facility. In a statement following the incident, a team spokesperson provided a sigh of relief to fans by confirming that Vanthoor is currently ‘Okay so far’
