We were sad to hear that Nuna 5 had an accident on Cox Peninsula road while testing over the weekend. The tyre burst while it was driving at 110kph, sending it crashing into the verge and damaging the cells and shell (but thankfully not the driver). Check out the story on their blog:

We’ve got to know the Nuon team quite well since arriving in Darwin – they’re a really great bunch, and we wish them all the best of luck with getting Nuna 5 back on the road in time for the race.

Get well soon!
