That’s Brian Taylor, upside down, in what was his 1977 Porsche 911. The accident happened a couple of weeks ago at the Phillip Island Classic. This image is one of a spectacular sequence brought to us by the excellent Motorsport Retro website.

If you have the stomach for it there’s a couple of amateur videos of the crash after the break.
