Wow! That's a bit disturbing to see. People need to respect the power of today's supercars. A car like this is to enjoy, you know is fast, but people want to find out how fast they really are, and how much they can push it to the limits, and this is the result of what they do.
People need to be responsible. Just sad to see something like this happen. I hope the driver, and occupant -if any- made it out ok. For the looks of it, looks serious.

I'm not 100% positive, but I don't think that driver will be taking an allocation spot for the next super vette. That HAS to be a fatality. 
and if by chance it's not...then it's an incredible testimonial for the safety of that chassis.

Based on the extensive damage and mud lodged in the wreckage, I'll guess that the driver left the highway at a very high speed (130 mph or more), hit a ditch or berm and rolled many times.
Probably only the brake calipers and a few other components are salvageable.
