Jos Verstappen survives near-death crash
A racing legend in his own right, Jos Verstappen had a moment where he faced death and survived in Belgium on Sunday. The 54-year-old was driving when his car slipped out of control, hit a tree and went spiralling into the trees.
In videos that have since gone viral, on lookers and emergency staff quickly rushed to the scene to pull the drivers out. Both drives miraculously survived. The car was however in ruins. In the visuals, several spare parts, including the tyres and doors can be seen displaced from the vehicle.
As a result, Verstappen Sr had to retire from the race.
