Didn't look like the barrier had any tyres in front, and there may have been an tree close behind the barrier.

Well there's a steep bank behind the barrier there, because that part of Tertre Rouge is slightly cut into the banking behind it where the motorway goes over. Just seems like such a strange place to go off, especially since the reprofiling 2-3 years ago means it's not the heavy braking into a tight corner that it used to be and the cars don't bunch up and swerve like they used to. If anything, it's a pretty uneventful corner now, so I'm surprised he even went off there
Olly Gavin was behind him in the Corvette and saw him go off, so maybe he saw what happened?
Edit: he was well out of Tertre Rouge by there - what the hell happened?

Looks from this onboard that he ran a bit wide and lost control on the wet markings (video doesn't show accident itself)
Jebus. Just didn't quite catch it fast enough

RIP - poor bloke.
Is it next year when there is due to be a bit more LMP1 competition from Porsche and co? Who else was it rumoured to be?
