SCREAMING spectators saw a Porsche almost crush a race marshal after flying into the air in a horrifying crash. One Twitter user claimed the fortunate marshal was her dad as she posted: “A small piece of catch fence saved his life!”. The rear of the car smashed into the tyre wall, where marshals stood just behind. Most heartstopping of all, Martin’s car went flying into fencing above the marshal – but came to a halt in mid-air. He believes the fencing dragged concrete up with it – but were then cushioned by trees. ‘I landed pretty much in a tree on a catch fence and the barrier. ‘The tree must have helped keep the fence off the marshals’ post so the guy in the post was super super lucky.
