This crash was probably caused by that 3 wheeled blue car, finally getting it's revenge!

Oh shit, I hadn't seen that second picture of the back end. I was thinking "Oh, that doesn't look that bad...they could probably fi...oh...shit..."

Too bad. One of the all time great cars.

LOL Atkinson's face is so expressive. Watch him on Top Gear.

i was just watching it the other day. so you're implying that he crashed his car because he was being too cocky because he is on the top of the boards..? he seems like a humble guy to me. :facepalm:

I've only ever seen him as Mr.Bean, so it's quite interesting to see him out of that character...
and actually talking... Although he still kinda acts Bean-ish. lol

He seemed very humble about his track time, and didn't even expect it.
