Found on google images. Followed link to page. Page was crap and just some text, so guessing it was an old news pic thats since been replaced.

Feel free to look if it bothers you greatly

It’s not every day that a $440,000 Porsche slams into a wall and kills its passengers, but thats what happened Thursday at California Speedway in Fontana. It appears that a private car club had rented the track for the day when the Carrera GT lost control and slammed into a retaining wall.

The track was being rented by the San Diego chapter of the Ferrari Owners Club.
Perhaps something to bear in mind with Trax approaching. They're just guys with cars who want to drive them, same as us. RIP.
