A TEENAGE F4 racing driver has suffered gam injuries after a horrific crash at Donington Park today, officials say.

Appalling movie shows the moment Billy Monger, 17, smashed into another vehicle which appeared to have stopped on the track in front of him.

Horrific footage of the moment the two vehicles collided was captured by the camera on board Billy's vehicle.

He was seen rounding another vehicle that blocks his view of Finnish racer Patrik Pasma's slowed car, before it looms large in front of him before he has time to stop or swerve.

ITV4 reported Billy was conscious after the crash, and about ninety minutes was spent removing him from the wreckage.
