Q is Pissed: 007 Aston Martin Wrecks on Lap 2

When I saw that the Daryson-Barwell Aston Martin had crashed into a tire barrier, I headed straight over to their paddock to get a first-hand look at the damage. When I asked the obviously disappointed crew member stationed there whether the car was on its way back, his response was, "Oh, don’t worry, you’ll be able to get plenty of pictures." He was so cool about the whole situation that I almost—almost—felt bad about wanting to get shots of the carnage. Fortunately, driver Paul Drayson was unharmed in the wreck, and the team has a solid month to get the car ready for the next race. I’ve posted a bunch of shots of the damage after the jump, and I even managed to get some video of the car being towed in. Better luck next time gentlemen, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you!
