Soccer Star Crashes Ferrari Into Tunnel Wall

Add another to the long list of celebrity car crashes. Soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Manchester United, crashed his Ferrari on his way to work on Thursday morning. The fleet-footed star crashed into a tunnel wall under Manchester Airport on his way to practice. After a breath test (negative) he was on his way to work again, injury-free albeit a bit shaken up. The Telegraph quotes an onlooker who said the Ferrari went straight into the wall. He reportedly took part in practice later in the day. Now that's impressive. The car however, doesn't look like it will be ready for action anytime soon.

This is typical Deidre post. I'm starting to think that she posts as much stuff as she can to get a cut, resulting in poor quality, high quantity.
People crash their supercars all the time - celebs included. Also, I don't think people come on Luxist to read about stuff like this.

Judging solely from his style of play, I'm guessing that (1) when he crashed, there wasn't anyone within thirty yeards of him, and (2) he grabbed his ankle and writhed on the pavement in pain until the police got there.
