I've not watched it, but now just reading up. It sounds horrendous. A bit worrying the barrier broke apart. They're meant to deflect impacts not break apart. There's talk of the race now being abandoned because of safety concerns. All they can do is replace the barrier like for like - one that everyone knows can fail!

They have just replaced it with large concrete blocks 

Really? I'm not sure that's a good idea! I've just seen the accident. I was unfairly harsh on the barrier. He managed to hit it at pace at almost 90 degrees. The barriers aren't designed to take that, so it couldn't deflect the car at all so just broke in two

Brilliant to watch, car over on it's top too.

More of this please, great watching, proper edge of the seat viewing.

The halo stem certainly works, it could have been a decapitation without it. Just shows how secure the safety cell is.

I thought it was his No2 mechanic, Toto Wolf is good at spreading the joy around.

It was Bottas’ no.2 mechanic. 
 

i just read that Hamilton has tested positive for Covid so he won’t be racing this weekend.
