A supercar convoy broke traffic regulations by 'jumping red lights' and 'failing to give way' during the luxury rally that led to a horror crash and killed two in Italy on Monday, according to local media.
Graphic footage captured the horrific moment billionaire Vikas Oberoi's blue Lamborghini appeared to turn into the path of a red Ferrari that was about to overtake him.
The impact sent both cars flying into a camper van that flipped over, while the Ferrari Portofino belonging to two Swiss tourists crashed off the road and burst into flames.
Swiss tourists Markus Krautli, 67, and his wife Melissa, 63, were killed in the fire while Mr Oberoi and his glamorous Bollywood wife Gayatri Joshi were unhurt and later pictured by their wrecked Lamborghini Huracan.
There was no indication those involved in the fatal incident breached traffic regulations as the convoy made its way from Pula in the south of Sardinia to Olbia in the north.
Property magnate Mr Oberoi, 54, was placed under investigation for causing the double deaths but has reportedly since returned home to India.
As he was not formally charged, no travel restrictions have been placed on him.
A spokesperson for Mr Oberoi's firm Oberoi Realty told MailOnline that Mr Oberoi and his wife had returned but refused to make any further comment.
A statement released following the crash had said the couple were unhurt and added: 'The relevant authorities are investigating the incident and until the facts are established, we won't be able to comment on the subject matter.'

Hindsight: Last couple trips to the interstates I noticed 2-3 sports cars apparently in a high speed race - bobbing & weaving their way. Should have guessed it was “a thing” what with video games and the internet and all.
Only if the convoy consisted of those two vehicles.
