Spyker shall return, Chiesa is okay it seems and the new car(s) will be available soon, glad it wasn’t the new one.

Poor old spyker,they dont seem to get any luck.
Glad to hear the pilot is ok.
Hope they can get a new car sorted before the first race.

Reminds me of images from days gone past…Very sad for the team. Thanks goodness Andrea was able to escape in time.

I seriously hope Chiesa is okay. That looks nasty. The car can burn for all i care, the driver is the most important thing, not the car.

Guys, “half past three” is 15:30… (half an hour past three o’ clock) I’m guessing the car caught fire at halt past TWO, if the session was resumed at three, right?

Looking at that picture, thank goodness Chiesa got out OK and I hope he is able to recover from it quickly.

That is a really shame.

Great work to capture it, Marcel.

Man this is really sad for Spyker, fortunately it was not the new car. The new car will be unveiled in Geneva this week.

It is the old 2007 C8 Spyder GT2R.

Was Speedy racing the old Spyker factory car?
Where are the new Spyker Laviolette GT2 cars? Not yet ready?
