The driver of the supercar was Russian born billionaire Suleyman Kerimov, a political member of the Russian state of Duma and was listed as number 72 on Forbes’ World’s Richest People List. Kerimov  built up his wealth in buying shares of Russian banks, oil companies and even his own airline at one point.He was under suspicion as his assets appear to have been financed by significant debts about which no public disclosure has been made.

The car is a black Ferrari Enzo, added  to a growing list of Enzo crashes. In the past three months many have occured:  a fatal Enzo crash just last month in California, another involving an accident in Utah as well as a crash in South Korea and the drag race crash involving Swedish fraudster Stefan Eriksson.

The French city of Nice was the place.The car was traveling at high speeds, skidded off the road and hit a tree before igniting. Both the driver and his passenger are said to be seriously injured, Kerimov has been hospitalised in critical condition at Marseille’s major burns center and a female passenger in the car was also injured.

This crash has a positive side, especially for Enzo's owners.Considering that on each day another Enzo crash, the price of the remaining exemplares should go up.
