Robert Sanchez walked away from a high-speed car crash during a track event at the notorious Nurburgring circuit, which left his Ferrari in a crumpled heap. The Chelsea goalkeeper, currently on loan at Italian side Como, was miraculously unhurt after smashing into a barrier while travelling at around 70 miles per hour on Monday afternoon. Sanchez was seen racing on the track when he lost control at the infamous Caracciola-Karussell corner, seemingly because he was going too fast.

Images on social media show his stricken Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo, wrapped in pink camouflage, strapped to the back of a recovery vehicle with significant damage to the front of the car.

The accident was witnessed by a British holidaymaker, who told The Sun: "He was going way too fast on the turn, travelling up to 70 miles per hour.

"He slammed into the corner and the track immediately got red-flagged. It’s a banked corner that goes on more than 180 degrees and he clearly had put too much gas on and drove straight into the barrier.

"The front of his Ferrari was completely demolished and parts were sprayed all over the track. I think he just wanted to have a bit of fun for the week."
