Sophia Floersch

Sophia Floersch was involved in a horrific crash during the Macau GP yesterday, fracturing her spine in the process.

The crash occurred when Sophia lost control of her car, which then went air borne over all other cars and finally ended up slamming into the photographer’s bunker.

The racing world was shocked with the footage that was released post the crash, as the scenes were truly horrific.

A marshal, 2 media people and Sho Tsuboi(the driver whose car Floersch collided with) were also taken to the hospital after suffering injuries.

An official statement right after the crash had conceded that Floersch was not in any kind of danger, but had suffered a spinal injury.

Later in the evening, Floerch took to twitter to herself provide an update on our health and the fact that she would be going into surgery the next morning.

“Just wanted to let everybody know that I am fine but will be going into Surgery tomorow morning. Thanks to the FIA, HWA AG and Mercedes who are taking great care of me. Thanks to everybody for the Supporting messages. Update soon.”

Now, while the initially released footage was one from the grandstand which didn’t really show the kind of impact the marshal and the media people would have suffered.

Now, a new footage has been released from besides the photographer’s bunker and it shows how close the car actually went to the people inside that bunker.

Social media poured out their love and support for Floersch and wished her a speedy recovery.
