Live sport on SN this weekendKostecki crash leaves four photographers injured

Brodie Kostecki has crashed out during the qualifying session of the Supercars’ Gold Coast 500, which has left four photographers injured.
During the final seconds of the session, the driver for Shell V-Power Racing, who already had the front of his car taped up, hit the wall at Turn 2 after touching the pit straight tyre bundle at Turn 1.
The crash would bring an end to the session, with the car needing to be taken away from the racetrack to be able to fix its chassis.
Kostecki managed to walk away from the crash with no injuries, but that leaves his chances of progressing into the next week of the Supercars final series in doubt.
After the incident, Supercars officials would release a statement confirming those details.
Following Brodie Kostecki’s high-speed crash into a tyre wall during Saturday’s Qualifying Session, Supercars can confirm that four photographers required medical attention.
Two photographers sustained ankle injuries, one suffered an elbow injury, and a fourth received a head injury. All four are alert, talking, very stable, and will be transported to hospital for further assessment. All are in a stable condition.
Motorsport Australia has implemented changes to photographer access in that area for the remainder of the event.
Supercars extends its thanks to the volunteers, officials and medical crews for their swift and professional response.
