Video: Formula 3 Driver Sophia Floersch Fractures Spine After Going Airborne in Horrific Crash

It was a scary sight at a Formula 3 race in Macau, China after 17-year-old driver Sophia Floersch's car came off the ground and crashed into a catch fence outside of the racecourse.
As she was approaching a slow right turn, Floersch's car lost control. She was near the side rail as she approached the turn going much faster than any of the other racers. There was another car on her outside coming up on the turn that Floersch made contact with before getting airborne and crashing.
She suffered a spinal fracture in the crash and three others were also injured in the incident.
Terrifying!
