A Swiss couple who were killed in a horror crash after their Ferrari crashed into a Lamborghini during an Italian supercar tour have been photographed for the first time.
The video shows the shocking moment the couple’s car crashed into that of another couple as the vehicles tried to overtake a campervan, which overturned.
Sardinian police confirmed the identity of the victims: Marcus and Melissa Krautli, from Wallisellen near Zurich.
Mr Krautli worked at the family logistics company Krautli, which has offices in Belgium, Switzerland and Portugal.
Meanwhile, an Indian couple involved in the accident and who escaped without injuries have been identified as Bollywood actress Gayatri Joshi and her husband Vikas Oberoi.
Police in Sardinia confirmed the identity of the victims: Marcus and Melissa Krautli, from Wallisellen near Zurich.
Bollywood actress Gayatri Joshi and her husband Vikas Oberoi (pictured in 2011) escaped injuries caused by the accident.
They were traveling in the Lamborghini involved in the collision with Krautli’s Ferrari and the camper van.
Ms Joshi, who starred in the hit Bollywood film Swades, told Indian newspaper The Free Press Journal: “Vikas and I are in Italy. We had an accident here: a collision involving several cars. With the grace of God, we are both perfectly fine.
Footage of the collision shows a white van driving past a line of colorful sports cars on the road in southern Sardinia, Italy, yesterday.
But seconds later, the video shows the red Ferrari behind the blue Lamborghini, trying to overtake the camper van at the same time.
This appears to cause the Lamborghini to be crushed under the van, which is then violently knocked onto its side.
The Ferrari, out of sight on the other side of the camper, also overturned and caught fire, trapping the couple inside, according to reports.
Mr. and Mrs. Krautli were aged 67 and 63. They were burned to death during the incident, according to local media.
Firefighters and air ambulance operators were working on scene and the road was closed.
A couple from Selva di Val Gardena in northern Italy, aged 61 and 62, who were traveling in the camper van, were injured and taken to hospital.
“We were lying sideways in our seats. For a moment we stood in silence, in disbelief. Then I looked my wife in the eyes and asked her if she was okay. She nodded,” Lorenzo M told Italian media outlet L’Unione Sarda.
The blue Lamborghini can be seen trying to overtake the white camper van driving in front of it.
