This is the horrifying moment that a car crashed into a crowd of spectators at a drag-racing event. 

Four people have reportedly been left in a life-threatening condition following the incident in Krosno, south Poland. 

Footage posted by Polish outlet Remiza shows a 27-year-old driver losing control of a green BMW shortly after pulling away from the start line for the quarter-mile race.

The vehicle can be seen swerving to the left before skidding in the opposite direction and heading straight for a crowd of spectators before the driver managed to bring the car to a halt.

At least 17 fans have been injured as a result of the accident, which saw more than 10 rescue teams called to the scene at 12.30pm local time.

Firefighters and an air ambulance crew from Krakow have also arrived at the scene.
