Formula 1 Testing Accident

It's possible that she had pulled in to the service area and had not selected neutral. After pulling in the clutch to come to a stop she then released the clutch thinking the car was in neutral, anti stall kicks in and instantly gives the car 50% throttle, which in turn surged the car forwards into the tail lift of the truck :(

anti-stall pulls the clutch though and the drivers have to release it...

Given where that ramp ended up, anything after surviving the accident is a plus.

Agreed. She could have taken the top of her head right off.
