The present invention relates to a vehicle (1) for rescuing racing cars (3) during motor races, and a method for rescuing racing cars using the vehicle (1). The vehicle (1) comprises a carriage (2) movable in at least two opposite directions, a platform (5) rotatably connected to the carriage (2) so that the platform (5) is rotatable at least 180° with respect to the carriage (2), an arm (3) attached to the platform (5) for lifting the racing car, a tool (4b) connected to the arm (3) for holding the car during the rescue, a swivelling tool holder (6) coupled to an outer end of the arm (3), and a control system (7) for controlling the motions of the platform (5), the swivelling tool holder (6), and the arm (3) upon receiving commands from a driver of the vehicle. The tool (4b) comprises a connection part rigidly connected to the swivelling tool holder (6) so that the tool is rotated upon rotation of the swivelling tool holder, and a holding member for holding the racing car, and the holding member is configured to hold the car in such way so that the car is rotated upon rotation of the tool.
