Baby Schumacher goes from 10th to 4th on the first lap. Impressive stuff.

Grosjean is one lucky mofo.

Whoa . That was hectic . Car literally in half . He must have climbed straight forward out of that thing . Replay from his car cam stopped just before impact , but that would show exactly how he got out .

 

On replay he was still in the front part , that’s incredible . Climbing out of the fire like that .

The racing gods were looking after formula one today

What does everyone think of the Halo now? No doubt it saved him from being decapitated by that armco! Then after the restart it did a great job for Stroll when he went upside down.

[Eugene Oppelt]

The intervention by the safety car driver and doctor, remarkable.

 

The investigation into the monocoque design with dual tank alight and the value of the halo will make for interesting scrutiny.

 

Men that run towards a fire, brave, very brave.

Fortunately, Grosjean was conscious and alert enough to climb out of that inferno.

 

F1 safety regulations, remarkable.

Phew!

Fantastic that the cars are much safer than they used to be.

 

Any idea of what caused him to cut across the track like that? Was he trying to overtake?

Million dollar question. Will Haas throw Mick onto the seat for next weeks GP. Mick will most probably say no. Winning F2 will be more beneficial to him.

More good news coming from Haas. No fractures. Commentators were talking of broken ribs.

Double post. Wierd

Grosjean has been making a few errors for a while now, this one just had serious consequences. He is so damn lucky that, A, the cars are safer than volvos, B, he was still conscious enough to get out of there and C(this is the most NB one) there was a saffa following him and brave enough o help him out the fire. 

The front part of that car was literally melted in with the barrier after the fire. You see how they had to remove the barrier and cockpit all in one piece and how quickly and efficiently did those guys get that sorted.

Some would say the Saffa was Hasstig to get the race restarted too......
