This is the horrifying moment a Ferrari crashed with a Lamborghini while the cars were attempting to pass a campervan that had overturned, killing the couple who was on a supercar tour.
Yesterday, the white van was spotted on a road in South Sardinia, Italy, in front of a group of vibrant sports vehicles.
However, a few seconds later, video captures the red Ferrari attempting to pass the blue Lamborghini while trailing the camper.
The van looks to be abruptly turned onto its side as the Lamborghini smashes underneath it.
Reports state that the pair inside the overturned and caught fire Ferrari, which is hidden on the opposite side of the campervan, trapping them.
In the Ferrari were two Swiss vacationers, ages 63 and 67. The tragedy claimed their lives due to burns, as reported by the local media.
The road was blocked off as firefighters and air ambulance operators worked at the scene.
The campervan’s occupants, a 61- and 62-year-old couple from Selva di Val Gardena, were hurt and sent to the hospital.
In our seats, we were laying sideways. We were stunned into silence for a little moment. I then asked my wife if she was okay, looking directly into her eyes. Lorenzo M. said to the Italian news organization L’Unione Sarda, “She nodded.”
The pair managed to escape the car by squeezing out from between the seats.
“We believed we were in hell when we emerged,” Lorenzo continued.
Witnesses reported hearing cries as the Ferrari caught fire, according to the publication.
Pictures display the totaled car at the side of the road.
A Lamborghini driver and an Indian couple were also hurt and taken to the hospital.
The video shows the blue Ferrari severely damaged and surrounded by smoke and dust at the side of the road, with the campervan obstructing both lanes.
Some of the sports cars that were not in the incident can be seen parked at the side of the road in another footage of the aftermath.
Black smoke rises from the burning Ferrari, and onlookers are gathering next to the damaged Lamborghini and the overturned campervan. An ambulance crew is also on the scene.
While the inquiry is ongoing, the authorities have seized the remnants of the three automobiles.
The supercars were traveling through the South Sardinian municipality of San Giovanni Suergiu on the 195 Sulcitana state route.
According to the Italian daily newspaper Corriere della Sera, the pair driving the Ferrari had left Forte Village and was traveling towards Mores on that particular day.
The Sardinia Supercar Experience event began in Teulada and was scheduled to conclude in Olbia, with all of the owners of the expensive automobiles reportedly participating, according to the Italian media.
Participants spend a couple days touring the island in ostentatious vehicles, stopping at scenic vantage points, and spending the night in upscale hotels.
If visitors drive themselves, the total cost of the trip is £10,409. For £21,515 you can rent a Ferrari SF90 from the organizer for a few days.
