Audis R18 # Hits a Ferrari and Crashes into the barrier wich almost seems to kill Mike, but luckely he survived. For the second time in the 2011 Le Mans 24 Hours, one of Audi's new R18 cars has been forced to retire after a massive accident involving a GTE class Ferrari. Approaching 11pm local time, Mike Rockenfeller had just moved into second place overall at the wheel of the #1 car when a GTE Ferrari -- believed to be the #71 driven by Robert Kaufmann -- moved across on the Audi on the high-speed kink leading to Indianapolis. The resulting contact saw Rockenfeller tipped into a spin that saw the Audi impact the barrier at high speed on the left-hand side of the circuit before the car rebounded across the circuit and smashed into the barrier on the right. Such was the extent of the damage that it wasn't immediately apparent which car had been involved before the reaction of the Audi crew told its own story. According to Audi Motorsport boss Wolfgang Ullrich, Rockenfeller was able to climb from the car and get over the barrier on the side of the circuit before medical crews arrived. Rockenfeller has now been taken away by ambulance from the scene of the accident. So far its said that he walked away from the car with no injuries! Mike Rockenfeller has a massive crash on the way to the Indianapolis corner. This time's it the #1 Audi of Mike Rockenfeller who made contact with Robert Kauffman. The car went head on into the guardrail and disintegrated. CONFIRMED: Mike <b>...</b>

Audis R18 (Tom Kristensen, Allan Mcnish and Rinaldo "Dindo" Capello) Hits a ferrari and Crashes into the barrier wich almost seems to kill allan macnish, but luckely he survived. The first hour of today's Le Mans 24 Hour race was marred by a huge accident for Audi's Scottish driver Allan McNish. McNish had enjoyed a superb start from fifth on the grid to be running second shortly before the hour mark when he clipped the number 58 GTE Pro Ferrari of Anthony Beltoise while attempting to lap the back marker as the cars headed down towards the Esses, crashing violently into the barriers. The Audi R18 suffered a high impact and slewed over the Armco railing throwing debris over trackside marshals and photographers. McNish was extracted safely from his stricken car but there was no immediate word on whether any spectators had been hurt. The accident forced the safety car onto the track and left last year's winner Timo Bernhard up front in the lead Audi ahead of its remaining sister car and the three Peugeots. A horrible crash for Allan McNish in the opening hour of the 2011 Le Mans 24 Hours, he tried to pass one of the slower cars, made contact and went hard into the barriers. Luckily he and everyone behind that barrier escaped unhurt. LE MANS, France (Reuters) - Former winner Allan McNish escaped serious injury after crashing his Audi shortly after the start of the Le Mans 24 Hours sportscar race on Saturday.

The 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans began on June 11, with Pierre Levegh behind the wheel of the #20 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR run by Daimler-Benz. American John Fitch was Levegh's assigned partner in the car, and he would take over driving duties later. Competition between Mercedes, Jaguar, Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Maserati was close, with all the marques fighting for the top positions early on. After just over two hours of racing and approximately 6:26 pm local time, Levegh was following Mike Hawthorn's leading Jaguar D-type along the pit straight at the end of Lap 35. Hawthorn had just passed Lance Macklin's slower Austin-Healey 100 when Hawthorn began slowing to make a pit stop. Hawthorn, whose Jaguar had disc brakes, slowed much more quickly than other competitors using drum brakes, such as Levegh's Mercedes. The sudden braking by Hawthorn caused the recently passed Austin-Healey to swerve to the centre of the track, attempting to repass the slowing Jaguar. Unfortunately, Lance Macklin had not noticed both Pierre Levegh and Juan Manuel Fangio, in another 300 SLR, approaching quickly from behind. Fangio was in second place at the time and attempting to lap Levegh. Levegh, being ahead of Fangio on the track, did not have time to react. Levegh's car made contact with the left rear of Macklin's car as he came quickly upon the slowed car. The aerodynamic design of the Austin-Healey featured a long, ramp-like rear bodywork. When Levegh hit the Austin-Healey from behind, his car <b>...</b>
