Four riders were involved in a fiery crash at the Motorland Aragon in Spain during the FIM CEV Repsol International Championship Moto 2 class on Sunday.

Xavi Cardelus lost control of his bike as he came out of a turn, causing it to flip across the track. Its fuel tank duly exploded and engulfed the track in flames as his competitors either rode past or got caught in the blast.

As you can imagine, the red flag was thrown immediately.

Thankfully (and somewhat incredibly) there were no reports of any major injuries; the race restarted and all but one rider, Cardelus himself whose bike was literally toast, returned to the start.
