Ajith Kumar crashes race car into barrier ahead of 24H Dubai 2025
Actor Ajith Kumar is in Dubai to take part in the upcoming Dubai 24-hour race, known as the 24H Dubai 2025.
At the practice run on Tuesday, he lost control of his car but escaped unhurt despite it smashing into a barrier.
During the practice session for the six-hour endurance test, Ajith crashed his race car into the barriers.
In a video currently on X (formerly Twitter), the actor’s Porsche can be seen slamming into a barrier, spinning out of control, and completely damaging the front end. Once the vehicle comes under control, Ajith escapes unhurt.
His team confirmed the news to Hindustan Times and said, “Yes, he narrowly escaped an accident, his race car hit the barrier during the practice run at around 12:45 pm. The security personnel present there responded immediately. Ajith shifted to another race car because this one was totalled and continued practice. Thankfully, he is unharmed.”
Ajith owns a racing team called Ajith Kumar Racing. He’s in Dubai to participate in the 24H Dubai 2025 along with his teammates Mathieu Detry, Fabian Duffieux, and Cameron McLeod. Fabian took over as the team manager in December. The race in Dubai is scheduled to be held on January 11-12.
