I am curious if it caused any engine damage when it broke on the track?

My friend lost the motor on his BMW when the broken belt wrapped around the crank pulley and seized the motor.

Nothing to the engine, I did lose the power steering unit. It was quick and I had plenty of time to pull off. I was more concern about the heat coming off the brakes, then the engine. But everything was ok, once the car got back together. The belt literal disintegrate, found bits of it every place.
