Back in 2011, Japan was the scene of a 14-car acciden that also include an impressive number of supercars: eight Ferraris, three Mercedes vehicles and a Lamborghini. Following the crash, the authorities saw the man in the leading vehicle, a 430 Scuderia, as being the only one responsible, but now there’s a big twist in the story.
The 430’s skidding may have been the spark for this fire, but the the officials are now prosecuting ten of the drivers involved in the crash, not just the 61-year-old driver of the aforementioned Ferrari. However, there are currently no further details about what’s to come for the ten drivers.

All the vehicles involved in the accident were heavily affected, so the repercusions are expected to be severe - the crash instantly became famous all over the world and so justice has even greater responsibility now.
