What occurred precisely? The Zonda was taking part within the Supercar Homeowners Circle occasion going down in Croatia. We do not know particulars of the crash, however the video on the prime of the article catches it because it occurs.

Injury to the Pagani appears to be like fairly in depth, with nearly all of the carnage on the motive force’s facet.
