“Ajith Kumar out of the car, out of the race. It’s the first significant bit of a damage we’ve seen from him this year. He’s a fine champ, he goes and helps the marshals clear up all the body. Not many drivers would do that,” a commentator can be heard saying.

The 54-year-old actor, known for hits such as ‘Mankatha”, “Billa”, “Varalaaru”, “Vaalee” and “Viswasam”, has participated in various races, including Germany and Malaysia. He drove in the 2003 Formula Asia BMW Championships as well as the 2010 Formula 2 Championship.

The actor was honoured with a Padma Bhushan from the Government of India this year, which is the third highest civilian award. He most recently featured in the Tamil film, “Good Bad Ugly” and hasn’t announced any upcoming projects yet. (PTI)
