From the Leyland cossie website :

BEFORE THE RUMOURS START THE ESCORT WAS INVOLVED IN A MAJOR CRASH

I HAVE SPOKEN TO ONE OF THE REYLAND TEAM OVER THERE.

THANK F*** FOR THE ROLLCAGE ETC...MARTIN & LEE ARE GONNA BE OK!

"BREAKING NEWS: Team 132 just reported a new accident just minutes ago. The car involved is a rally-rigged Ford Cosworth who flipped over 100m ahead of Team 132. Both drivers are injured, with one in need of first aid. Luckily, both drivers should be fine! The Cosworth is reported total wreckage. We will be back with more information as soon as possible.

It was the Looney Cosworth that crashed in Marrakech this morning. Team 132 was in front after leaving Marrakech at 8 pm local time today (08.06.2004). There were one or two cars between Team 132 and the Looney Cosworth when it left the road and disappeared in clouds of dust. Parts were shattered over a large area. Team 132 was the first persons to arrive and help them. Fortunately the car was built as a rally car and both persons are ok, circumstances considered. The co-pilot felt unwell and bleed from his nose, so he was taken to a hospital nearby. The car will most likely be shipped back too England. We do not know the reason for the accident. "
