Bristol loyal 6,248 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Anyone see this? Absolutely incredible that the car can be ripped in half, burst into flames and Grosjean can survive, let alone free himself from the car and walk away. Great job from the medical and rescue teams getting there so quick aswell. https://www.formula1.com/en/video/2020/11/2020_Bahrain_Grand_Prix__Grosjean_escapes_huge_crash_and_fire_at_race_start.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism_scotland 165 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Very, very lucky to get out of that; I can't remember anything like that in my 20+ years watching F1; show's how much safety has improved; in the 90's or early 00's we would have been dealing with a fatality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very lucky and as you say just shows how much safety has improved over the years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA1972 9,551 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Very lucky boy Romain I have never seen an accident like that, no doubt the halo and structural safety of the drivers area of the car saved his life today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
