Hard to say. The other was Heidfeld's, right?

These celebrations are very disconcerting in the circumstances. I hope that's a positive sign, but I'm very concerned that Alex was apparently taken straight to hospital rather than the medical centre


Yeah it's bizarre. I know the coverage isn't going to give out information before they know what's going on, but in these situations you'd usually expect the celebrations to be more muted

Also seems as if there was an attempted missile strike on the race from a rebel group :ohmy:

Yeah, I saw some yt footage of that missiles, but didn't post anything, because how we can say that it was from this town and from today? :p

Both Aurora and Doge posted it, so it seemed kosher.

A different angle;

The TV coverage was awfull, 2 incidents today at the end of a session that get censored on TV, no mention of what's going on at all. Hate this, we need to see what's happening, even bad crashes. And a missile taken down, wtf!? They shouldn't be racing in these kind of countries tbh

Lynn's crash looked dramatic because he was upside down, but didn't look like he was going to hit anything too hard. I wonder how he was injured in that?

if the car got air perhaps has to be with the impact on the floor

Edo and Alex's friends and relatives don't need to see what's happening

Well, he went into the wall backwards and upside down. I imagine he got a jolt. Dario said he had "sore knees" so it may just have been that it was a difficult extraction

The floor of his car was badly bent at the back. That's how big a hit it was.

Well, he was sliding on his roof backwards and without front wing, so imo he done something like for example Di Grassi back in 2005 f3 Hocke race. Maybe due to yellow in front because of the first accident, Evans slowed down way earlier than normal and Lynn did not react that quickly and ran into the back of Evans car and went DiGrassing through concrete into the wall

Also, looking again at that amateur footage, I'm not sure it was Evans. His rear looks fine

Apparently a rash of post-race penalties. Vergne and Cassidy both handed 24 second penalties and Wehrlein moves up from 16th to 10th. Rast, Nato, Sims and Blomqvist all penalised as well.

As expected, they hadn't taken their 2nd attack mode so were technically "out of position"

Surprised they didn't quickly run through it on the VSC or SC tbh, they had enough time and knew the rules

Evans confrmed Lynn clipped the rear wheel of his car before taking off.

Then they better stop broadcasting racing if every serious crash gets censored, this is a worrying trend. Cancel culture. Everything mildly shocking or offensive gets censored these days.
