The race was red-flagged with about nine minutes left to run due a very large crash involving Olympiacos' Chris van der Drift who was sent to hospital with a broken ankle, two broken ribs, a cracked shoulder blade, a dislocated shoulder and two broken fingers.{{cite news|url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/85805|title=Van der Drift suffers multiple injuries|work=autosport.com|publisher=Haymarket Publications|date=2010-08-01|accessdate=2010-08-03|first=Charles|last=Bradley}}{{cite news|url=http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/85834|title=Van der Drift undergoes first surgery|work=autosport.com|publisher=Haymarket Publications|date=2010-08-03|accessdate=2010-08-03|first=Steven|last=English}} He had run into the back of A.S. Roma's Julien Jousse just after Surtees' bend, they touched wheels which sent van der Drift's car into the air hitting the side barrier and bridge before spinning down Pilgrim's Drop, temporarily on fire, to a stop with the car seriously damaged and nearby racers narrowly avoiding the wreckage.{{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20100804210334/http://www.superleagueformula.com/superleague/Clubs/Olympiacos/News/Haschemo-athuchema-gia-Olympiakho-sto-Brands-Hatch ]}} Van der Drift remembered the accident and interviewed a few days later put it down to "a racing incident...
