Jeez! that looked big.

May I just remind you though, Nate, that some of us prefer to not know what happened till we watch the TV coverage. Maybe next time be a little less specific in the title and include the phrase "Spoilers included" Thanks mate.

Had a search and found this:

Turning his attentions to Chris Atkinson in the sister Impreza WRC, Lapworth joked that the Australian had been 'shaken but not too badly stirred' by his fiery roll early into the first run through Walters Arena on Friday evening, following which he had been taken to hospital for precautionary checks.

"He's okay," Lapworth affirmed, confessing that his charge had simply been 'going too fast for the conditions'. "He's got a few bruises and a bit of a black eye and so on, but he's in good spirits. He was down here quite early for a coffee this morning and he's fine.

"It was a very, very difficult place, much slipperier than he expected - not typical of the conditions on the Gold Coast! I think it just caught him out, and after a big accident like that he can't remember what happened anyway.
