Polish authorities recreate horror Kubica crash
Launching Fabias against arm-co barriers
Polish authorities have recreated the kind of accident that earlier this year seriously injured formula one driver Robert Kubica.
Renault’s Kubica suffered horror injuries during a minor Italian rally in February when arm-co barriers skewered his Skoda.
Near-identical Skoda Fabias was used for the recreation in Poland, where they were shot at 110kph against the arm-co at a 20 degree angle, and then compared to the same crash on a stretch of arm-co that was properly installed.
The footage can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_5MGNUIvKc
