Williams FW32 - 2010
It has now been confirmed that the crash suffered by the Williams F1 driver Rubens Barrichello at the Monaco Grand Prix was in fact caused by a loose manhole cover.
Barrichello had been running in tenth place when he was seen losing control of his car as he headed to Massanet, and it has now been revealed that this was caused by the cover at turn 2. The cover had come loose and spun up as the Brazilian drove over it, hitting the rear left wheel of the FW32.
Barrichello was lucky to have escaped the incident without injury but the car was severely damaged and the accident has now been reported to the FIA.
