Peckish python nips in for a quick bite of six-times racing champ

Six-time V8 Supercars champ Jamie Whincup, 32, was bitten while posing with the 3ft black-headed python

A racing driver gets a nasty puncture when a python sinks its fangs into his hand.

The non-venomous reptile was dislodged a few minutes later at a zoo in Sydney.

Jamie was left bloodied and bruised after the python’s antics.

But thankfully his injuries are only superficial.
