A man, suspected to have been in the Golf, was arrested on suspicion of serious injury by dangerous driving shortly after the incident, but was not charged.
South Yorkshire Police say investigations are ongoing. The Star has enquired over the condition of the man injured in the crash.
PC Gary Richards, from Roads Policing Group, said in a statement on January 15: “This collision has led to a man ending up in hospital with serious injuries and we believe there were a number of people at the scene who were filming at the time during what we suspect was an organised ‘car meet’.
