The Vantage F1 Edition ran across the asphalt run-off area and then skipped across the gravel trap before plunging into the tyre barriers on the outside of the track.
While the incident was spectacular – with the car ending up stationary in the barriers side-on - Maylander and his passenger were unhurt and climbed out of the car unaided.
While there has been no explanation for the cause of the accident, the strange way that the car snaked under braking for Parabolica – before spinning around – suggested it could well have been caused by a mechanical problem rather than driver error.
