Nick Heidfeld recently treated a crowd of laborer's at BMW's Munich factory to the spectacle of the BMW Sauber Formula One car. While showing off the car with a couple of donuts, he also mistakenly hits the kerb, and off is the front wing

A bit embarrasing if you ask me.

Looks like he overshot his mark due to the heavy smoke.

Anytime someone is doing something as crazy as "playing" with these machines, the risk is high.

I don't think Heidfeld should be embarassed, maybe BMW should be embarassed for making Nick perform in such a small cage.

BMW asked Nick to do something he really doesn't do. And Nick asked his car to do these things, and this is what you have when the tool doesn't match the application.

'Tomba', there is another thread with this topic in the 'off topic' board, created by 'rjsa' a couple of days ago. Maybe it would be possible to merge the two since they share an exact topic.

Factory show off...

Why would they have Heidfeld do 'doughnuts' in a small street? Thats enourmously stupid of them to ask that of him, or of him to even consider it!

lol, oops.

I remember once a Minardi (?) was doing a donut, got in a situation where it had to reverse, and he stalled it
