Knocked out? What do you mean? In hospital?

I'm impressed at how Loeb saw the crash coming from a mile away.

I LOLed so hard at this video.

A marshall telling Loeb about the track: "might be a bit slippery.....because of sand"

I'd be tempted to blame that on the fact they weren't using HANS. Nowadays drivers usually walk away unscathed from much bigger shunts than that one.

Glad it's nothing serious.

During a narrow defeat to Loeb, Kovalainen clipped the barriers at the final corner and broke his Audi R8's rear suspension. This pitched the car into a spin as he tried to brake on the slowing-down lap, and after demolishing the inside barriers, Kovalainen had a heavy impact with the outside wall. Both Kovalainen and his passenger - his girlfriend Catherine Hyde! - were unhurt but the Lotus driver withdrew from the event to get precautionary checks in hospital, having been briefly knocked unconscious.

Interview with Loeb at ROC :lol:
What’s the strangest thing a fan has ever asked you to do or weirdest thing you’ve been asked to sign an autograph on?
A girl asked me to sign her g-string.

Was she wearing it at the time?
Oh yeah!
