Georgi Donczew escapes blazing wreck after terrifying Ferrari collision in GT World Europe thriller

MISANO, ITALY — In one of the most harrowing and surreal moments of the GT World Challenge Europe season, Lamborghini driver Georgi Donczew miraculously walked away unscathed from a violent, fire-engulfed crash during the race at Misano World Circuit.

The incident unfolded during a high-speed section of the circuit when Donczew’s Lamborghini collided with a Ferrari, triggering an immediate explosion of flames that consumed the rear of the car. In seconds, the Lamborghini turned into a fireball, sending shockwaves through the paddock and leaving fans breathless.

“That was terrifying. I don’t know how he got out in time,” one pit lane eyewitness said. “Everyone just froze.”


🎥 The Moment Caught on Camera

The dramatic footage — now circulating across social media — shows the Lamborghini bursting into flames instantly upon impact. Spectators watched in stunned silence before erupting in applause as Donczew emerged from the blaze and made it safely to the side of the track.


🔥 Safety Systems Save Lives

The incident serves as a stark reminder of the intense danger present in GT racing, but also as a testament to the incredible advancements in motorsport safety. The fire-retardant cockpit, reinforced safety cell, and Donczew’s composure under pressure all played critical roles in what could have easily been a fatal accident just a decade ago.

Race control immediately red-flagged the session as emergency crews extinguished the blaze and removed the charred remains of the car.


🗣️ Reaction from the Paddock

Tributes to Donczew’s bravery and the safety team’s response poured in post-race.

“That was a miracle,” one GT driver tweeted. “Hats off to the safety crew and to Donczew for keeping calm when it mattered most.”

Though the Lamborghini was completely destroyed, Donczew was cleared by medical staff shortly after the crash and is expected to resume racing later this season.


From a fiery wreck to a miraculous escape — Georgi Donczew’s survival at Misano is the story that reminds us all just how thin the line is between glory and catastrophe in motorsport.
