      @@BeatersRus tbf tho, I think he was speeding as fast as possible to the finish line, and kept his foot down because even if you let go of the throttle just before the line it can cost you some time, and then the rimac accelerates so damn fast hammond just wasn't prepared for it and the next thing he knew he was coming up to the corner. He slammed the brakes on the car slid and yeah..
      To be fair to hammond, that rimac accelerates so damn fast that from the finish like to the corner was probably like a couple of seconds if that.

      It shouldn’t have happened it seems to me like Rimac is hiding something because if it got out that part of the car malfunctioned it would just destroy Rimac as a company, Richard said multiple times that he couldn’t get the car to slide then he said he didn’t know how it happened in this video, and it doesn’t seem like he’s doing anything that would cause him to crash other than a malfunctioning EV. Not that I blame Rimac for hiding it, it makes perfect sense.

    Did they have cameras on Clarkson and May when the crash happened?
    They would have just heard that there was a bad crash, and then perhaps a fire (depending on how long it took to catch fire) before hearing that Hammond is okay (well, minor injures) or even getting to the crash site.
    Despite their act, they would've been freaked.

    People went cruel all out on Hammond without considering some facts about Rimac hypercar ... How many guys you think actually got to drive it before Hammond ? 5 ?
    Do you think it is easy to handle 1200 bhp without any feedback of sound warning you how much power is on the tires ?
    Electric motors accelerate way faster than conventional engines and yeah he was going in hot but then again , he couldn't know how fast exactly because his eyes should be ahead , not on the speedometer .
    I think any race driver in that car without previous experience on the specific car could have crashed . If you didn't notices Jeremy said " you drove all morning" That means he only had few hours getting used to it ...
    It was an accident .

    • @griffins5655
      @griffins5655 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It shouldn’t have happened it seems to me like Rimac is hiding something because if it got out that part of the car malfunctioned it would just destroy Rimac as a company, Richard said multiple times that he couldn’t get the car to slide then he said he didn’t know how it happened in this video, and it doesn’t seem like he’s doing anything that would cause him to crash other than a malfunctioning EV. Not that I blame Rimac for hiding it, it makes perfect sense.

    • @georgeisaak5321

      @@griffins5655 Hammond or any guy like Hammond, in a brand new hypercar, full of cutting edge technology, fully electric, only hearing the tires on the tarmac was difficult to estimate how fast he was going. You approach a turn, your eyes are on the road ahead, you take your foot of the throttle, only to realise that without throttle there is no way you can turn that thing into direction because you are coming in too hot.... Next thing you know tires spin but the car goes straight, the speed was so great even the torque vectoring couldn't be efficiently strong... "limitation unlocked". Even if Rimac had the slightest clue this was a potential issue or not, who could possibly warn the driver for it ? . You know that car Tesla... 0 to 60 in 1.8 seconds, they tested it on a straight line. The only drivers that could possibly control such thing, G forces etc are the dragster drivers and again they have experience only in a straight line... Poor Hammond had curves ahead. I think you get my point now.
