Mercedes DTM driver Pascal Wehrlein has been involve💯d in a car𒆙 accident at the German national football team's training camp which has left two people in hospital.

Wehrlein - who drives a Mercedes for HWA Team - was at the training camp in South Tyrol in Northern Italy for some promotional filminꦐg alongside Nico Rosberg, when his car struck two people on a road which was closed to the public. It is believed Rosberg and Wehrlein were driving separate cars, each carrying a member of Germany's World Cup squad, while filming at the team's base.

Neither Wehrlein nor his passenger were hurt in the incident, with the German FA (DFB) confirming♉ there had been a "serious accident" but that no injuries had been susta✱ined by any squad members.

"An accident occurred during a visit to the training camp of the German National Football Team," a statement from Mercedes-Benz Motorsport read. "While driving on a clos𓂃ed circuit, DTM driver Pascal Wehrlein injured two people whom he unexpec🎃tedly encountered walking on the closed course.

"We cannot offer any statement🃏 concerning the severity of injuries, as both injured parties are currently undergoing medical treatment. Pascal Wehrlein was un🎉injured in the accident.

"We deeply regret this accident and send wishes of quick🍒 recovery to the injured. We will work in full cooperation with 🎉the authorities in determining the exact circumstances of the accident."
