Rally cars jump all the time. And, when they land, we’re always left thinking: “Wow, that was impressive... I wonder how bad it would have been if it had gone wrong?”

Fortunately, we need not wonder no more as Quentin Gilbert showed us just how badly things could go after the nose of his Skoda dipped down in mid-air during a jump at the WRC 2 - Vodafone Rally de Portugal.

The Skoda hits the ground nose-first and proceeds to roll over twice down the track. Fortunately, nobody in or around the incident was injured.
