Ferrari F40: Serious Crash in the Rain

The Ferrari F40 is what you call a car with a temper. From the way that generously-sized rear wing cuts through the air, to the turbo setup in front of the wing, everything about this 80s supercar is Crazy.
However, when you’re driving the car along and enjoying it, it’s all Crazy Good, but if you push it hard in the rain, mixing the lack of electronic nannies with a rush-maneuver situation turns things to Crazy Bad.

This is exactly what happened in the case of the F40 shown in the clip above, which was involved in a pretty serious crash that recently took place in Vancouver.

The details of the crash are pretty scarce at the moment, but it seems that the F40 was being driven back from a weekend auto event, with rain being present, when, due to an unknown reason, the rear started dancing.

As you can see in the adjacent clip, the rear of the car (the juicy part where the engine is) was damaged pretty badly. The only good part in this sad, sad story is nobody seems to have been injured in the accident, since the emergency teams around the car are pretty calm.
