Police probing the deaths of Diogo Jota and his brother Andre are expected to give an update on the Lamborghini tragedy within days, MailOnline understands.
Spain‘s Guardia Civil and officials working in local government in Zamora are calculating how fast the acid green £180,000 Lamborghini Huracan was going when it crashed in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Police admitted last week that they did not know which brother was driving at the time.
The tyre of the supercar, capable of going 200mph, is believed to have blown out while overtaking another vehicle on the A-52 at Cernadilla – just ten miles over the border from Portugal.
The provincial head of traffic in Zamora, Alfonso Ibáñez, is said to have been compiling crash data for the road where the brothers died. Six people have died on the region’s roads so far this year, compared to 11 in 2024.
Experts have been studying the road’s surface and layout as well as the barriers that the Liverpool star’s car crashed into in the early hours of the morning.Nearby car dealerships
Local sources describe the A‑52 as notoriously treacherous – pockmarked with potholes, broken lanes, recent roadworks, and even deer by the side of the road. A 60-year-old woman was seriously injured on the same road Jota died, last Wednesday at around 11.30am when her car came off the dual carriageway.
The siblings, who were laid to rest in Porto on Saturday, were driving through northern Spain to catch an overnight ferry to the UK.

They were headed to Santander to catch a ferry to Britain after Diogo was advised not to fly following lung surgery, it was reported in his home country.
Liverpool were due to start pre-season training on Monday, so Jota was heading back to the UK on a road trip with his brother less than two weeks after he married his childhood sweetheart Rute in his home city of Porto on June 22.
There are several vital unanswered questions surrounding the tragic crash which killed Diogo and his younger brother Andre Silva, who was also a professional footballer.
Today MailOnline examines the key issues which will be the focus of investigators trying to understand what sent the brothers’ Lamborghini supercar crashing off the road in a case that has shocked the world and devastated their families.
How fast was the car travelling?
The stretch of the A-52 where Jota and his brother died has a speed limit of 120 Km per hour, or 74.6mph, while the Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder has a blistering top speed of 202mph, as well as phenomenal acceleration form 0-60mph in 3.1 seconds.Nearby car dealerships
Exact speed remains elusive but the Spanish Guardia Civil say skid marks of nearly 50 metres were found near the crash, which in itself would not necessarily indicate that the vehicle was exceeding the limit.
