Welsh racer Seb Morris’ dream of battling for a Pro-Am podium on his debut in the Total 24 Hours of Spa last weekend was rightly replaced by heartfelt concern for team-mate Andy Meyrick after a major accident involving the Bentley Continental driver midway through the race.
At 3.00am on Sunday morning, Meyrick and the No.666 Lamborghini of Jurgen Krebs were involved in a monumental accident – the severity of which led to a race stoppage for the fourth round of the Blancpain Endurance Cup and required both drivers to be extricated from their cars.
Initially taken to the Spa-Francorchamps circuit medical centre before being transferred to nearby hospital, Meyrick and Krebs sustained a number of fractures and both remain under observation due to the high-speed nature of the extremely serious accident.
