Top Gear crash that nearly killed Freddie Flintoff and may have finished off the show came when star was doing just 22mph as he flipped open-topped car without a helmet

Daily Mail  

Freddie Flintoff’s horror crash last year – which may end up finishing the Top Gear franchise – happened as he took a corner at just 22mph. Freddie Flintoff, pictured, scraped his face 'horrifically' after he rolled a three-wheel Morgan Super 3 while on the Top Gear test track The Morgan Super 3, pictured, has three wheels and is open topped. Flintoff was travelling at 22mph when he flipped it But a BBC spokesman told the Mail: ‘A decision on the timing of future Top Gear shows will be made in due course with BBC content.’ Flintoff, 45, apparently required ‘numerous’ operations afterwards and scars were visible on his face last month when he emerged to coach the England cricket team. That is due to start filming later this year and may indicate that Flintoff’s team have settled financially with Top Gear maker BBC Studios.
