Diogo Jota RIP

[Sly]

I see they’re now saying, it looks like the car was overtaking at speed, likely lost control and rolled. 
 

Crazy to think what that must be like.

Can't believe how quickly the funeral is happening. 

Obviously they were great friends but Neves has made it there after playing in the US last night.

I thought that when I saw it on the news this morning.

It's not unusual to be exceeding the speed limit when over taking I'd have thought.

True, I guess 'how much over' would be the concern..

I thought they said that a tyre blew out was the cause initially?

Going far too fast greatly increases the risk of a tyre blowing out.

Could be both perhaps.

Not debating your point but what is far too fast in a Lambo?

 

It's not like it's going to have your stock Kwikfit tyre on it.

Not sure but logic says the faster it goes, the more pressure is on it, if it’s a bit worn then it could be easier for it to blow?
