Horrorcrash Guy Martin - Isle of Man 2010

Hidden somewhere in this fireball is Guy Martin, as this exclusive picture was snapped he and his Honda CBR1000RR were sliding down the Isle of Man TT course in a ball of flames. The incident would go on to red flag Fridays Senior TT race, break several of Guys ribs, bruise his lungs, fracture two of his vertebrae and twist both his ankles.

The crash occurred at Glen Vine on Guys third lap, a fast left/right section of the course. According to eyewitness reports, guy lost the front end at about 150mph, causing his bike to slide down the road at high speed. The racer reportedly separated from the bike early in the crash, before it caught on fire, meaning he was on the fringes of this deadly fireball.
