The crew in this rally crash were “unharmed but shocked,” as the YouTube uploader describes. Watch the video and you’ll see how close they were to crushing demise.
The driver and co-driver are Yoan Droumenq and Gabriel Durand, the car is a Citroën C2, and the rally is Rally Ronde de la Durance (just north of Aix-en-Provence) over the weekend.
I can’t believe how the tree utterly destroys the back half of the car. I shudder to think what would have happened if the front two seats had taken that hit.
