Ferrari 250TR "Testa Rossa" Incident #2:   David Love

One lap after Shirley's spin, fellow Ferrari 250TR "Testa Rossa" driver David Love also came to grief in Turn 8.

He was unable to slow for the turn, and drove into the "Kitty litter" run-off area at high speed.  He flew into the air at least once (which could have flipped the car), hit the tire wall at the far end of the run-off area, bounced off, and finally came to rest sideways on the racetrack.

Love then  maneuvered the car to a safe location further down the course.
