Kubica 3D Crash Animation - F1 Canada 2007 | With 270 km/h into a concrete wall

A detailed 3D recreation of one of the most violent Formula 1 crashes. The amazing Robert Kubica leaves the accident at the 2007 Canadian GP without any major injury. However, not much had to go differently, or the end result could have been much worse. Let's look more in depth into all the small events during this crash. Including new angles, onboard footage and a slow motion recap. Enjoy the crashalong!

Do you think this crash was a lucky escape, or a well-engineered event? Should anything else be changed to increase safety in motorsports? Did you gain some new insights into all the dynamics of a high-speed accident like this? Please discuss in the comments and share the video!

Disclaimer:
At some moments during the crash, I have to make educated guesses about the dynamics of car/track elements. I do not claim that the animation is 100% accurate. It is based on the experience of a simple mechanical engineer with a fetish for crashes.
