Macau GT race

Can't find a thread that will fit this video. Pretty crazy the Audi flipped upside down and slide down the track. The race has to end which I don't know why, the Audi driver was leading in that lap, and he got the first prize.

The Macau GT is indeed a street circuit.

Here's a better description of what happened from Jalopnik: Driver Flips In Brutal High-Speed Crash And Wins Race Sliding On His Roof

Basically the organizers decided to base the final race results from the lap before the crash which is why the Audi won first place over the Porsche.

props to drivers who race on street circuits
the turn where the pile up occurred is barely wide enough to fit 2 cars
