Hope he's ok. He spent 26 seconds in a burning car, add shock to that; oxygen mask is not surprising. Hopefully it's really "just" some minor burns and a few cracked ribs...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,663 Posted November 29, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted November 29, 2020 I felt absolutely sick while those cars were going round under the red flag. I'll take him being in one piece after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan van der Merwe was the first one out there, great response from everyone... Like a CGI scene out of a fucking movie. You can see Grosjean at points in between the barrier desperately getting out. So glad he did. You'd guess adrenaline kicks in to get out and take the action he did. 5 minutes ago, nudge said: I just heard Van Der Merwe talk to Sky and he pretty much echoed what everyone probably thinks - the medical car at the back of the grid is there for that precise reason. Ensure the safety of everyone and they're well trained to respond to incidents like that. That training fully paid off. Still insane watching it back. The impact of the collision is mad.

Let's hope it's not the case and that the burns and the cracked ribs is all there is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope it's not the case and that the burns and the cracked ribs is all there is. Brundle reckons broken ribs. Understandable given the deceleration from 53G. Maybe that explains the oxygen mask as with broken ribs there's potential for lungs to get damaged - it's all speculation so shouldn't do too much of that. Let's hope it's as little damage as possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,386 Posted November 29, 2020 Administrator Share Posted November 29, 2020 Why don't they just start in positions again on the grid? All the 'X has to give position to Y' just sounds confusing and seems easier to start normally in the correct positions on the grid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
