Video clip of Kimi Raikkonen rolling the Abarth Punto S2000 on Vaarinmaja, the longest stage of the 2009 Rally Finland.
Raikkonen rolled the car twice and was lucky to miss Mads Ostberg's Subaru, which had crashed at the same spot where the Ferrari driver went off.
Minutes after the accident, Raikkonen said the crash was the result of putting his car in the wrong position on the approach to the corner. "I knew that place but I came in with too wide a line," he said, "I thought we were going to go wide but then, unfortunately, there were a lot of rocks and when I hit them the car went over."
"I thought we wouldn’t finish the rally because we had too many problems with the engine! But it was good fun and nobody got hurt. It happens - it's part of rallying," he added.
Co-driver Kaj Lindstrom stated that the team will not SupeRally tomorrow due to the extent of damage sustained to the Punto.
