Spectacular crash at Macau Grand Prix F3

We don't see the cause of Sophia Floersch's car going backward down the street, a tagged-wheel crash further up the straight before this area of video, but the result of that clipping put 17-year-old Floersch in hospital with spinal fractures. Amazingly there were only four injuries.

How did she do that?

From the comments:

"For those wondering what led to the incident: She was tracked by a speed gun travelling at 276 km/h down the straight. Jehan braked early which didn't give time for Sophia to react. She hit Jehan's right rear tyre causing her to spin. Thereafter she had no control and rammed into the back of Lisboa which caused her to go airborne. Nobody really at fault, just an unlucky incident. Sophia was conscious although suffered a spinal fracture."

Well, she did "Dare to be Different".
