First picture of dad seriously injured in £1.2million Ferrari horror crash that killed 13-year-old schoolboy

These are the first pictures of the dad who was seriously injured in a £1.2million Ferrari horror smash that claimed the life of a 13-year-old schoolboy.

Matt Cobden is believed to have been behind the wheel of the rare F50 supercar when it crashed through a wooden fence on a 10mph private road.

The 37-year-old, who has been named locally, was rushed to North Hampshire Hospital in a serious condition after the incident on Monday night.

He remains there in a 'stable' condition.

Tragically, a schoolboy who was travelling in the 4.7-litre Ferrari - one of only 349 ever made - with Mr Cobden was pronounced dead at the scene.

The unidentified teenager, from Winchester, Hampshire, is believed to have suffered a fatal chest injury in the crash, possibly from a fence post.




The two victims are unrelated, police said.

The Ferrari F50 ploughed through the fence and flipped over after careering off the quiet farm access road in Hook at around 8.35pm.

The smash left skid marks and broken glass on the road.

Last night, a spokesman for Hampshire Police said that inquiries into the incident suggest that Mr Cobden, from Surrey, was driving the vehicle.

This is contrary to earlier claims that the schoolboy may have been behind the wheel.

The spokesman said: "Officers from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit have been continuing their investigations into the exact circumstances of the incident throughout the day and have indicated that the driver of the vehicle was the 37-year-old man."
