First LP640 Crash

This car was on the way to a press event when it lost control and crashed.

Do you actually know the details of the crash? How do you know it was actually his fault? It's perfectly plausible that somebody else lost control and hit the Lambo or caused it to lose control. You might be right, but people shouldn't be so quick to damn IMO.

with it being a press event the roads were prob closed and he will of been allowed to 'speed'

Its not just the dfault of the driver could of been something ont road or anyhting however it is still a shame to see this happen to such a beautiful car

^^ They don't close roads for press events!

It doesn't look like there was another car involved: the damage doesn't look like it was caused by another vehicle and the caption does say he lost control.

And anyway he was on the way to the press event, so no road closed then.

Not that tragic. If the guy who droved it is very rich (and still alive), he's probably going to buy a new one. And so Automoblili Lamborghini will get a little bit richer than if he didn't break his LP640. Do you get what I mean?
