Pothole damaged my car

Hi my sons car has been damaged by a pothole he had a new tyre only fitted for the mot 2 weeks ago and last night he hit the pot and it caused the tyre to blow out and the rim to crack this cannot be repaired as the split is to big and will need to be replaced, the pothole is situated on the roundabout in the slip road coming west bound on the A6116 junction 12 off the A14 at Islip Kettering. Please see pictures attached of the pothole. The damage to the car was caused directly because of the pothole and I will need to make a claim to replace my rim and tyre. As we pay our road tax every month I expect to be able to drive safely on well maintained roads and not have my car damage
