On March 28, Wang Yibo participated in a practice session for the 2025 China GT Championship at the Ningbo International Circuit. However, during the session, his car unexpectedly lost control and veered off the track.
According to Sohu, the accident was caused by heavy rain, which made the track slippery, leading to Wang Yibo’s car skidding and crashing into the safety barrier. The incident quickly topped Weibo’s hot search rankings, sparking concern among netizens. Wang Yibo’s studio promptly issued a statement reassuring fans that he was in stable condition, only experiencing dizziness. Medical staff were immediately present to assist, and fortunately, he sustained no injuries.
Wang Yibo is one of the drivers participating in the pre-season race for the 2025 China GT Championship, taking place from March 27 to 29. In this event, he is teaming up with professional racer Fang Junyu to co-drive car number 85.
This is not the first time Wang Yibo has encountered an incident on the track. In 2020, during the ZIC motorcycle race at the Zhuhai International Circuit (Guangdong), he was forced off the racing line by an opponent, causing his bike to lose control and roll multiple times on the grass. At the time, not only fans but also fellow celebrities like Wang Kai, Yin Zheng, and Hu Yutong expressed frustration over the unfair play.
Apart from acting, Wang Yibo has a deep passion for racing, skateboarding, street dancing, and mountain climbing. He has accumulated extensive competitive experience and has participated in numerous major sports events.
Born in 1997, Wang Yibo is one of the most famous celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry today.
