Terrible. Accidents happen, hope everyone is safe. Sebring is a rough, bumpy track.

Such a shame but hope that they made it without injuries.

Just happened to know that one of Porsche Club UAE members had an accident that wrecked his Turbo S cab...

Who's to say that skill, or the lack thereof, were related to the crash?

Maybe a flat tire, or a mechanical failure because someone failed to tighten a bolt to spec.

It's a fallacy that crash implies lack of skill. The best surgeons aren't usually the ones with the lowest fatality rates.

If it was simple driver error, and it was an instructor driving a student's car, however, that could get a little messy...

Yep
The Sebring crash I saw had 2 people brake hard in front of him and slightly get in his way. Barely a touch left front wheel to right rear quarter panel and the car shot into the air like it hit a ramp.

urban legend has it - an instructor driving his car with a student in the passenger seat -

as for skill - who can say what happened - appears to me the car pitchpoled forward - not sure how that happens... probably not coming into 17 or 1. I did hear there were no injuries
