BahahahahahahahahahahahahaIhopehe'sokay.
I mean, I hate Top Gear and I hate Jeremy Clarkson and I kinda hate Richard Hammond by association, but yeah. Don't exactly hate either one enough to wish death by car crash upon them.

Oh no, not again! Can he not see over the dashboard? Is this like the kid from the Temple of Doom, only in an adult?
(Seriously, though, I hope he's alright.)

Car crashes in a car race. Shocker. After watching two or three Top Gear episodes I wouldn't trust any of them behind a wheel (or in Hammond's case, handle bars either ... he's a shockingly bad motorcyclist), but a Croatian built experimental electric car leaving a wreck like that I feel is less human error and more of a design flaw as responsible.
Incredibly lucky. There's few instances where a wreck that torched would leave the driver only 'injured'. Lithium ion phosphate battery with a liquid cooled magnetic p-synchronous motor? Yeah ... very lucky. As one can tell from the footage. But, hey ... someone has to be a martyr in the name of science and engineering. And if that someone just happens to be Hammond, so be it.
I'm a motorcyclist by heart, that's where my love of vehicles begins and ends (I have a passing fondness for helicopters as well). But I will still be putting fossil fuels into my internal combustion engine until at least 15+ years of this technology being hammered out for two wheels ...

I'm glad he's ok, I know crashes in car races tend to be common but still, they also tend to be pretty lethal.
On the bright side, Frankie Boyle will have some more material to use from this...
