In the cut and thrust pace of life on the circuit, competitors and fans alike grow used to 200+kph speeds and split-second reaction times when on the edge.

But how about if we slow that edge down, and that 200+kph becomes 2kph? What happens when a V8 Supercar hits the kerbs at full pelt, a Formula One car whallops the chicanes with the taps wide open, and a MotoGP bike slides perilously wide with seemingly no hope of revival?

Hopefully this slow mo will answer your questions.
