From what we can tell, the number 22 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/gallardo\">Gallardo<\/a> LP560-4 driven by Giorgio Bartocci got off into the gravel on the last turn before the front straight. It&#8217;s unclear whether Bartocci was nudged by another racer or whether a mechanical failure caused the slide, but either way, the car hit the wall at considerable speed and nearly disintegrated on impact. <\/p>\n<p>The driver&#8217;s side door sprung open as the car slid down the tarmac, and Bartocci could be seen flailing outside the vehicle. When it finally came to a stop, the Raging Bull turned into a raging fireball. Fire crews initially took longer than expected to pull the driver from the wreckage and were seen using underpowered fire extinguishers to battle the blaze. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/08\/03\/report-fia-accepts-amended-concorde-agreement-f1-dispute-draws\/\">FIA<\/a> is expected to investigate the incident. Amazingly, Bartocci survived the ordeal and is currently in intensive care.<\/p>\n<p>Lamborghini canceled the remainder of the event and rounds six and seven have been indefinitely nixed as well. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/05\/24\/massive-gallardo-crash-in-super-trofeo-leaves-bartocc-in-intensi\/#continued\">Hit the jump <\/a>for a video of the incident.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/giorgio-bartocci-lamborghini-super-trofeo-crash\/\">Giorgio Bartocci Lamborghini Super Trofeo Crash<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/giorgio-bartocci-lamborghini-super-trofeo-crash\/#3009603\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/05\/01-gallardo_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/giorgio-bartocci-lamborghini-super-trofeo-crash\/#3009604\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/05\/02-gallardo_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/giorgio-bartocci-lamborghini-super-trofeo-crash\/#3009605\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/05\/02-gallardo-1274727558_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/giorgio-bartocci-lamborghini-super-trofeo-crash\/#3009606\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/05\/04-gallardo_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/giorgio-bartocci-lamborghini-super-trofeo-crash\/#3009607\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/05\/05-gallardo_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foltyn.cz\/car\/lambo.htm\">Foltyn.cz<\/a> via <a href=\"http:\/\/jonsibal.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/fiery-crash-in-super-trofeo\/\">Jon Sibal<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/05\/24\/massive-gallardo-crash-in-super-trofeo-leaves-bartocc-in-intensi\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Massive Gallardo crash in Super Trofeo leaves Bartocc in intensive care<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/05\/24\/massive-gallardo-crash-in-super-trofeo-leaves-bartocc-in-intensi\/\">Massive Gallardo crash in Super Trofeo leaves Bartocc in intensive care<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Mon, 24 May 2010 21:01:00 EST.
