Long time Barber Motorsports Park mannequin ‘Georgina’ fell off a bridge onto the live race track earlier today bringing out a caution

11 months ago By Sports Desk

Barber Motorsports Park, known for its exciting racing and scenic scenery, was the scene of an unusual incident over the weekend. The iconic ‘Georgina’ dummy, which hung from a bridge at the track for years, fell from the bridge and came to rest on the edge of the track during a live race.

The incident took place during the IndyCar race when ‘Georgina’ suddenly decided to get involved in the action. Her unexpected accident led to the display of a yellow flag, while the circuit announcers quickly clarified that ‘Georgina’ was not a real person, but rather a peculiar part of the Barber Motorsports Park environment.

The ‘Georgina’ dummy has become a well-known and beloved figure on the court over the years. Created by the park’s founder George Barber, ‘Georgina’ has always been an intriguing presence, watching the races from the top of the bridge. Barber’s ‘Georgina’ joke in 2017 added even more charm to her persona, portraying her as an attractive Southern lady hoping to fall into the cockpit of a racing car.

Despite the initial scare, the race continued after ‘Georgina’ was safely removed from the track. Race winner Scott McLaughlin took the win after the incident, but ‘Georgina’s’ presence certainly left an indelible mark on the memories of all present.

This unusual episode highlighted the unique and unpredictable nature of motor racing, where even a dummy can become part of the action. For drivers, teams and fans, ‘Georgina’s’ accident was a funny reminder that in the world of racing, anything can happen.

While ‘Georgina’ may have had an unexpected moment in the spotlight, her presence at Barber Motorsports Park will continue to be a beloved part of the track’s tradition and history. And for those who witnessed her downfall, ‘Georgina’ will always be remembered as one of the many quirks that make the world of motor racing so fascinating and unpredictable.
