- Other influencers present, including Behzinga, Sidemen member, and Vikkstar, Sidemen member, watched with concern as the crash drew attention due to Izzy Hammond being Richard Hammond's daughter.
- During the duels event, Izzy said, `Massive apologies to my team LOLA, they have been so amazing and I returned the favour by putting their car into a wall sideways and destroying it` after hitting a bollard at 24g, but she is `absolutely fine`.
