Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo lost control of his red Ferrari 599 in a tunnel near Manchester Airport this morning in a one car accident totally obliterating the front end of the fabulous touring car.

Cristiano Ronaldo, a 23-year-old player for Manchester United, lost control of his red Ferrari 599 in a tunnel near Manchester Airport this morning. After the accident, the young soccer player passed an on-site breathalyzer, which leads us to believe he lost control showing off for, or racing against team mate and goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar who was supposedly "following behind." The force of the impact was intense enough to scatter debris across the two lane road and landed a tire 200 yards from the resting place of the car, Ronaldo was unscathed and managed to hit practice later on.
