For one group of drivers, a lap of the Green Hell quickly descended into chaos

This is a first-person viewpoint of the chaos that quickly ensued during a 14-car pileup at the Nurburgring a few weeks ago. The action begins at around 30 seconds in, when the helmet-cam driver spots an accident ahead before stopping and leaving his car to leap over the barrier to relative safety.

The driver then runs down the track to attempt to warn oncoming cars to little or no avail. Early on in the action, you can see what appears to be a dark red BMW 3-series saloon successfully pulling over before being ploughed into by an incoming Audi TT amongst a continuous stream of cars who have no idea of the chaos they are about to unwittingly become a part of.

The pile-up looks like the 14-car freak accident reported by Bridge To Gantry in early November 2017 with a number of the cars involved matching up.

According to BTG, two of the people involved in the accident were hospitalised.

This is a video of the aftermath of the chaos where you can clearly see a number of cars involved including what appears to be a Porsche 911 GT3RS along with a host of track-ready BMW’s all looking somewhat worse for wear.
