The images are heart-wrenching. On Saturday, March 22, Peter Auto organized its traditional Esp\u00edritu de Montju\u00efc event at the Barcelona circuit. This event, reserved for historic cars, brought together some of the most legendary endurance racing cars in the world. Among them were a Porsche 917 and a Peugeot 905.<\/p>\n
The Lion was involved in a violent accident during the race. At the wheel, Soheil Ayari seems to have lost control, apparently due to a brake problem at the end of the long straight of the circuit. The tricolored car can be seen in distress, cutting the first corner, crossing the gravel trap before crashing into the tire wall.<\/p>\n
If the French driver was able to exit the prototype by his own means, the Peugeot, on the other hand, suffered the effects of the crash. The entire front of the car is destroyed. And the chassis seems to be in bad shape. The accident caused a red flag and the end of the race.<\/p>\n
The event was broadcast live on the Peter Auto YouTube channel, but the organizer removed the footage of the accident from the live stream. Only a highlight remains. The scene was captured by several spectators present in the stands.<\/p>\n
