F1 car crashes at Goodwood Festival of Speed

Last weekend, the Goodwood Festival of Speed was held. This event guarantees motorsport spectacle with demonstration runs of all kinds of iconic (racing) cars. So too did the Adrian Newey-designed Leyton House F1 car give a demonstration. Unfortunately, driver Richard Hope lost control of the 1990 car and landed hard in the straw bales.

The 1990 Leyton House was not the only car to be written off during the event. At the exact same point, a demonstration with a 1996 McLaren F1 also ended in tears. The Gordon Murray-designed street car also ended up in the straw after a short drive through the grass.
