Hmmm....
I'm just guessing but maybe they got the permit to close the streets early, and had to do the rest later? There are still people living there, despite the ghost town look, so the crash could've happened after the race

If you look closely at that shot there is a suspicious box over the location of where the damage should be. In a later shot you can see small evidence of damage in the form of a faint black mark.
My theory is this, the production crew cleaned up the damage as best they can to look good for the street circuit filming, the first shot was digitally fixed as it is a long still shots but for everything else they decided that the on set fixes where sufficient.

Well, that's a surprise, I really thought the presenters drove all the bits and pieces they show in the program (call me naive if you want).
It's a matter of money as well as logistics: The presenters are much more expensive per day than a picture vehicle driver (who will make in the ballpark of ?150/day and stays in a way cheaper hotel) is. Thus, keeping the TG three around for a grueling week of filming beauty shots over and over again until the cameraman is satisfied makes no sense economically.
And it's still setting my OCD off that I haven't quoted him exactly! :lol:^ that's a very detailed piece of paraphrasing there
I wonder what Ferrari said when they tried to return the ruined 458? Think the BBC had to pay for repairs?
