British comedian Paddy McGuinness, who has hosted the Top Gear car show since 2019, had an accident while filming a new episode. He lost control of a 1990s Lamborghini Diablo.

• According to Paddy on his Instagram, he was driving a Lamborghini through the countryside at a speed of about 35 miles per hour (56 km / h). Due to the wet road, he did not notice the oil stain on the asphalt, lost control on it and flew into a ditch, breaking a small fence. As a result, Diablo was beaten from all sides, but people were not hurt.

• The co-hosts of McGuinness - car journalist Chris Harris and former captain of the British national cricket team Andrew Flintoff - also participated in the filming. At the time of the accident, they were driving a Jaguar XJ220 and a Ferrari F40. These supercars were not harmed.

• The Sun found out that to complete filming, Paddy switched to the regular SkodOctavi and continued to work on it. Perhaps the episode of the accident will air in the 29th season of the show, whose premiere date has not yet been disclosed.
