Check out these incredible images of the moment Jochen Mass, driving a Mercedes SLS 300 ‘Porter Special’, worth an estimated £4million, crashes into the back of Tony Wood’s Lister-Jaguar Knobbly at Goodwood.
There has been the usual differences of opinion on who is to blame. The accident occurred during qualifying as Wood was entering the pits. Thankfully neither driver was hurt.
A spokesman for Goodwood Motorsport said “Unfortunately, neither car was able to be repaired in time to take part in Sunday’s race and neither driver was able to take any further part in the on-track action.”

The Mercedes is unique, having been created by a US mechanic in the 1950s, and it is feared it will be difficult to restore to its former glory
The Jaguar fared equally badly in the accident and was left with the rear badly twisted into the air and damage to both sets of wheels
