Overview
- Preliminary pericial findings by the Guardia Civil in Zamora attribute the July 3 Lamborghini Huracán crash that killed Diogo Jota and his brother to excessive speed and a rear tire blowout, and confirm Jota as the driver.
- The forensic dossier remains incomplete and under judicial secrecy until it is formally submitted to the Juzgado de Primera Instancia e Instrucción de Puebla de Sanabria in Zamora.
- Investigators analyzed skid marks and tire tread imprints on the A-52, noting that while the speed limit is 120 km/h, drivers routinely reach 130–140 km/h on that stretch.
- Jota had rented the high-performance Lamborghini in Barcelona days before the accident, prompting authorities to consider his familiarity with the vehicle’s power.
- José Azevedo, a truck driver who witnessed the crash, asserts the Lamborghini was traveling at a calm pace, directly contradicting the speed hypothesis.
