A racing team says it is withdrawing from future events in China after a driver is injured in a fiery crash during a GT race at the Shanghai International Circuit. In the incident on Saturday, British driver Ollie Millroy’s car explodes into flames. Another competitor performs a rescue, pulling him from the wreckage.
The team calls the organizers “grossly negligent in the safety response,” criticizing how officials handle safety measures and emergency actions. Yahoo Sports and The Independent both report the same core accusation and the team’s decision to step back from events in China. The Winnipeg Free Press also frames the team’s comments in similar terms, focusing on conduct around the crash and the alleged safety failures, though it provides less detail in the provided excerpt.
Across the outlets, the dispute centers on the adequacy and timing of the organizers’ response to the fire and rescue, alongside the team’s stated intent to avoid further races in China.
