I see Mark has gotten plenty of practice flying around. No wonder he landed his Red Bull car safely in Valencia.

2:13 You can see the marshals reacting to the crash before the TV crew caught on.

This Mark Webber guy seems really good, I believe he could be in Formula 1 some day

Bro took "i believe i can fly" to a next level 💀💀

This guy has had countless wrecks during hes time in racing career and F1, and been unharmed like every time. Then someone like Allan Simonsen crashes quite, well does not look too bad and dies.. quite weird.

Trying to balance the front and rear down force can be tricky at differing speeds, they were playing around with flat floors too at the time!

Mark Webber is such a good driver he can flip 3 cars.

Mark Webber still racing in the LeMans Series since that crash in 99

"If you're gonna race cars, you're gonna crash cars" Mark Webber. I loved when Clarkson asked him in that interview, "would you be pressing the brake pedal?" And Mark replies "oh the brake lights would probably still be on." 😂😂😂 Man's a class act.

Does anyone know if there's footage of Mark's car flipping, either of the times? I've seen the other car go over, not Webbers.

You could see the stewards running before they showed the wreck.

Saturday morning warmup started with "Surprise! Mercedes sur le toit!" over the PA system at Le Mans. No TV video from that flip, so spectators at the track did not know what happened until that local newspaper came out with the photos.

I hope this wont happen him next year in Porsche 919

That Viper in 2nd is an amazing car, I remember when I used to see that at Silverstone

@Zeggawong There are no footage of the flips at all, this video angle missed it and there wasn't nothing during practice (although I am certained it would have been filmed) I know Christophe Bouchet's Mercedes got an onboard camera but I don't know about Mark Webber's car.

​ no wonder he's always upside down, webber is australian

There will never be footage of this accident or even part of it thanks to one cameraman who had his head up his ass.

I was heart broken when this happened, bad times

And that's how he got Red Bull seat in F1

He is Australian, he deals with death threatening events every day. A little flip is nothing to him. Mercedes hired the perfect person for the job.

This just proves that Mark Webber had wings before Red Bull.

2:30

Lol I rewound to 3:59 a million times XD can't get enough of it hahaha

and Mercedes refused ti believe the car flipped both times, laying blame on Webber himself until the 3rd time was caught on camera. By then, the relationship was already damaged.

Yea, I like Webber. I think if he could've gotten a good ride he'd win in F1

12 years later, was close to winning the title in 2010 and has multiple victories and podiums.

I hope to see Webber back at Le Mans in 2014. Hopefully the Porsche doesn't flip like the CLR.

Here's a question. Did that crash constitute oversteer or understeer? Maybe uppy-overy-steer.

Correction, GT-2. . . though Oreca did run GT-1 for a year or two and met with little success.

@TheAirsoftmadman They can if they are set up for it. None of the current F1 tracks allow for the car to be set up to go that fast in a straight line however. I believe if you look up Honda F1 and Bonneville, they did max out an F1 car, but that was set up for straight line speed only. It had no rear wing and a lot of other mods were done.

absolutely shocking

6:30 norbert haug with his mustache :)

Mark Webber is the #1 driver in the world now....no doubt about it.....he even lapped Schumi in Hungary....

Hard to believe that the Web was only 6 years old.

At 2:15 some of the marshalls start running because the CLR is flipping at this moment

Imagine a CLR without roof...

@DINOSFM1994 the car itself Fliped as it came over the hill how is that his wrongdoing?

Deja Vu for Mark. He must have wings :D

How did that happen?

In Assetto Corsa this car drives just fine. Never had any problems. And I drive the classic 60's Le Mans circuit. 😁

I am just wondering if he got a lotto ticket after both and won

@MrFerrari4ever1 well, its not his fault the CLR-LM went up in the air...

@Zeggawong No but there's one of Peter Dumbreck's crash which is pretty much the same, just at a different part of the track.

This video was uploaded one month before I was born

Yes it is

is that a toyota GT-one at the start?

"It's the Mark Webber car, again." Mercedes has felt so cursed that it has never returned to Le Mans since.

@blacklyche there's a lot of great drivers that hasn't (already) won a championship..and it's pretty clear that in the last two years he demonstrated to be a big driver..

@TheRandomVids101 Well Webber thinks so....because the moment he lapped Schumi he said to the radio 'That felt good!'

That doesn't make sense. You agree that F1 is half team half driver, but yet you say a world champion can't be compared with other drivers ? You need a good car to have the opportunity to become world champ in the first place. And comparing drivers is generally rather difficult anyway.

so poor picture quality 😮, year 1999 you sayin…?

I come from a land down under....

To make things even, he crashed most of his F1 cars too.

Good to see that Mark is silencing all of his critics! Yay Marky!!!!!
