Jeek Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Utterly horrible accident, amazing that nobody was killed.She tweeted about it shortly after! Mental that people survive crashes like that, never mind MOSTLY unscathed. I realise that she has a spinal injury, but still.The bad luck involved in that accident is incredible. If she'd bounced higher off the kerb she'd have gone into the fencing (whether it would have held is a different matter) and if she bounced lower it would have just been a big shunt between two cars,Here's a tweet of some differing angles, the slightly zoomed in one....

Ginaro Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 14 minutes ago, Jeek said: The bad luck involved in that accident is incredible. Bit of good luck as well - she could have taken the head off the other driver, gone into the fence lower right into a marshal or higher directly into the photographers. Crashing backwards is probably better than forwards as well. Slow motion: Also, they really needs to invest in light boards around the circuit like in F1 so you have fewer marshals in harms way.

They are saying she is conscious, has a spinal fracture but her vital signs are stable. Different angle from the one I posted further up, but it looks as if she hasn't slowed down at all for the corner. Probably went in the air before the braking point.

BerwickMad Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Enjoyed the race today even though I wasn’t expecting to. Absolutely loved the end with Hamilton and Vettel taking Alonso to the grid for donuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 That's incredible, it's unbelievable how well protected the drivers are nowadays. She is in a neck brace, but the fact she is up and about at all is incredible. I was watching the F1 race on Sunday and my daughter was convinced Hulkenberg was going to be badly hurt, right away I told her he would be fine. She was amazed that he was able to talk on the radio within seconds of tumbling over a couple of times, never mind walk away a few minutes later.
