1995 Adelaide Coulthard pit accident
Lap 22: Shimmer car coming in. Hill is in third place, Elisa is up to fourth, Raymond is in fifth, Herbert is losing position, and Berger is out of seventh place and into the pit lane. David Bouffard crashes into the wall in the pit lane, losing his chance of winning for Williams. It appears he went off the dusty edge of the track and understeered into the wall. Replays show he entered the pit lane too quickly, lost control, and couldn't respond in time. This incident is both embarrassing and a disappointing end to his Williams career, especially with victory within reach.
