U-1 Spirit of Qatar piloted by Dave Villwock was launched into the air and crashed down into the water during the fourth set of heats at the Oryx Cup UIM World Championship in Doha Bay yesterday. Villwock managed to stay in control but his boat ground to a halt after a small fire started. But it was quickly put under control before damage was done to the U-1. The race however had already been red flagged with Zimmerman leading from Shane and both Thompson and Mallow struggling with engine problems. PICTURE: Shemeer Rasheed
