Second Witness Says Diogo Jota Was Not Speeding Moments Before Fatal Car Crash

ZAMORA PROVINCE, SPAIN, JUL 9 – Truck driver Jose Azevedo disputes police claims that Jota's Lamborghini exceeded the speed limit, highlighting ongoing investigation amid 19 accidents on the A-52 highway in 2023.

  • Last week on the A-52 in Zamora province, a tyre blowout caused Diogo Jota's Lamborghini to veer off the road, burst into flames, and kill both occupants.
  • Spanish police cite possible excess speed and road faults, noting the A-52’s notorious layout contributed to the tyre blowout and crash.
  • Portuguese truck driver Jose Azevedo filmed Jota’s burning Lamborghini, stating it passed 'super calmly' without speeding and that he could do nothing to rescue the occupants.
  • Following the crash, Zamora authorities labeled the A-52 'very dangerous,' amid calls for safety improvements after a second fatal incident two days earlier.
  • Civil Guard traffic police are still finalizing an expert report, studying wheel tread marks, which may inform future safety improvements on the dangerous A-52 highway.
