A tragic accident unfolded at a motorsport event in Sri Lanka's Fox Hill circuit, where a car collided with spectators, resulting in seven fatalities and 21 injuries. Video footage captured the moment when a red car crashed into the crowd, despite track marshals signaling for caution. Army chief Vikum Liyanage had opened the gates to spectators for free, drawing a large crowd to the event. The incident occurred during the first hosting of the race in five years due to the COVID-19 pandemic and economic challenges. Sri Lanka's roads, already notorious for accidents, witnessed another devastating event.
