The latest news from the Nürburgring track are not pleasant as it has been reported and filmed that the famous BMW M5 sedan Ring Taxi crashed, closing down the circuit.
The folks over at the BridgeToGantry who shared two photos from the incident in which we see the M5 with its rear quarters heavily damaged and side air bags deployed, said that "the exact circumstances aren't immediately clear".
However, YouTube user Tom49115 who took a short video of the aftermath, said that the "slippery conditions" were to blame.
It remains unknown at this point if anyone was injured or whether any other vehicle was involved – it doesn't seem like it, but we'll updated you as soon as we learn more.
