“Basically, yeah, a slippery road. Obviously the car handles the corners well, so I’m going like 30, maybe 35, on a 30 road… It stays in the corners, so I think it’s not even I need to brake, I’m just going to go around the corner. When I go around the corner, it skids. So I shit and hit the brakes… That’s the worst thing you can do on ice. Yeah, hit the brakes. “explained the footballer, who admitted that at the time of the accident he was dressed as a snowman.
