The accident occurred at around ten to one this afternoon between the Coll de sa Creu and Coll des Tords about one kilometre from the military base. One of the cars went off the road and hit spectators.
All four are said to be in a serious condition and are in the Rotger and Juaneda clinics. One person has suffered an injury to the spine, another has had a foot amputated, a third person has various fractures, while the fourth has suffered chest and other injuries.

My feelings entirely, but according to one report the spectators were asked / told to leave the corner by a track official as it was a dangerous position to be standing in. This they did but went back again after he had left.
Total sympathy goes to the injured and to their friends and families. Clearly, until a full investigation has been conducted and the conclusions published, this is not the place for recriminations or guesswork BUT I hope there is speed, accuracy, and an open attitude that will hopefully prevent any repetition.
