Belutti fractures three vertebrae in Barueri car crash
Belutti says he lost control leaving Rodovia Castelo Branco, fractured three vertebrae and called the crash “um livramento”; his friend Leandro remains under observation.

Programme
- Belutti reported three fractured vertebrae after the crash early on Monday the 9th.
- The collision occurred on Alameda Rio Negro in Alphaville, Barueri, in Greater São Paulo.
- Belutti said he lost control while leaving Rodovia Castelo Branco for Alameda Rio Negro.
- His team said rain and road conditions caused the car to skid into a roadside barrier.
- Friend Leandro remained under medical observation for facial and neck pain.
Belutti disclosed that he had fractured three vertebrae (bones in the spine) after a car crash in the early hours of Monday the 9th on Alameda Rio Negro, in Alphaville, Barueri, Greater São Paulo.
He made the disclosure in a video recorded for his social-media accounts. It supplies the central stated medical fact: three fractures. Belutti did not identify the affected vertebrae, outline treatment or set a recovery period in the video. He gave the public an injury count without a medical timetable.
His team gave a separate account. It said the vehicle skidded on a curve and collided with a roadside barrier. The team attributed the crash to rain and the condition of the road. That statement establishes the conditions cited by the team, while Belutti’s own explanation supplies the route and the moment he says he lost control.
Belutti described the route in more detail. He said the loss of control occurred as he left Rodovia Castelo Branco to enter Alameda Rio Negro. The impact came at the front on the left side, after which the car spun and stopped on the opposite side of the road. His version therefore joins the highway exit, the curve and the final position of the vehicle.
Taken together, the accounts describe a skid on a curved road, a barrier collision and a spin across the roadway. Belutti’s account explains the driver’s loss of control at the road exit; the team’s statement identifies the rain and road conditions. The two accounts address different parts of the same sequence rather than offering competing versions.
The video also had a clear purpose beyond reporting injury. Belutti sought to reassure the public and described the outcome as “um livramento” (“a deliverance”). The phrase conveys his own framing of the occupants’ survival. It does not supply a medical prognosis, and the source contains no information about treatment or recovery.
Belutti also reported on his friend Leandro, who was in the car. He said Leandro was well but remained under medical observation because of pain in his face and cervical region, meaning the neck.
The report gave no further detail on Leandro’s condition or discharge. His observation extends the medical situation beyond Belutti’s own injuries, although its extent remains unspecified beyond the reported pain.
What changes for Belutti and Marcos?
The practical change for the duo is that the report leaves recovery without a timetable. The source contains no cancellation, replacement plan or return date, and it does not explain how three fractures may affect Belutti’s work.
The next useful update should identify the injured vertebrae, explain treatment, report on Leandro and set a timetable. Until then, the report establishes the crash sequence and the scale of Belutti’s stated injuries, but it cannot support an estimate of when Belutti and Marcos can resume normal activity.
