There’s a reason why Citroen Americans aren’t raced in Formula 1 and why only drivers with a lot of experience compete.

Footage released overnight of the streets of Monaco shows an Ami rolling onto his side after attempting to complete the Grand Hotel hairpin, which is part of the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit of Monaco is.

YouTube channel Newsclick shared a video of the accident, taken from two different angles.

The Citroen was seen driving up the hill before turning back down, tires squealing.

This sharp corner is one of the slowest corners of the Grand Prix and some F1 cars are slowed down to just 48 km/h to successfully take the corner. The top speed of the Ami is 45 km/h.

The video shows the driver driving quite a way down the hill while beginning to tip over on two wheels.

Its tiny tires couldn’t hold onto the road as the Ami caught some air before hitting a bollard on the side.

The Ami is classified as a four-wheeler, so it doesn’t need to have safety features like traction control, anti-lock braking, or airbags.

Consequently, none of these features are offered on the 2.4m Citroen, which has a 6kW electric motor and a 5.5kWh lithium-ion battery.
