The company was keen to downplay the incident, but witnesses initially reported seeing the car on the circuit at high speed, then hearing a crash followed by sightings of a lorry leaving with a damaged – but covered – car on its tray.
Other unconfirmed reports detail MP4-12C hitting the guard rail hard during a high speed curve.
McLaren has allegedly indicated the car has been badly damaged but that the driver escaped major injury.
There has been speculation that the attendance of a medivac chopper suggests the situation was more serious, but it’s possible the helicopter was the one being used for a camera crew filming the car on the track.
