British racing driver Ollie Millroy is injured after a crash in a China GT event at the Shanghai International Circuit. Footage reported by multiple outlets shows his Ferrari catching fire after a collision. Millroy, described as 36, is subsequently helped by other participants and medical personnel as track procedures are carried out.
Accounts describe the initial incident as a multi-car crash as the cars navigate a bend, with Millroy’s Ferrari impacted by another vehicle. The reports also say that another driver nearby rushes toward the burning car to help before marshals and responders handle the situation. Some coverage emphasizes the rescue effort by the other rival, while other details focus on the severity of the fire and the race setting, including the event location and circumstances around the smash.
While the outlets differ in how strongly they highlight the “rescuer” angle, they broadly agree that the crash leads to a burst of flames and that Millroy receives timely assistance during the immediate aftermath.
