Formula 2 car hits motorway

Drivers in the Czech Republic were left stunned after a Formula 2 car was spotted casually driving along a motorway heading into Germany.

Members of the public captured the crazy sight on camera as they travelled along the D4 motorway, which runs out of Prague, and several videos of the Ferrari have gone viral in the past week.

While it is illegal to drive such vehicles on the motorway in the Czech Republic, this is not the first time the F2 car has been seen on public roads. 

Police investigated a similar incident in 2019 in the same area. On that occasion the owner of the car was tracked down but the suspect denied he was driving the vehicle at the time.

Officers could not prove their case as a helmet concealed the driver’s identity and they were unable to lay any charges.
