News on Correa

Oh god, no...

Terrible news.

My god. I’m so upset

fia.com is down but apparently this reads there:

As a result of the incident, the FIA regrets to inform that the driver of car #19, Antoine Hubert (FRA), succumbed to his injuries, and passed away at 18:35.

That is shocking, terrible news. Thoughts with Antoine's friends and family at this time.

What awful news. My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.

This is terrible, absolutely awful news.
Rest in Peace Antoine Hubert.

God damnit

It hurts to think he was only 22.

I can't imagine how Alesi must feel right now. He obviously did nothing wrong but won't stop anyone from feeling a certain level of sadness about their involvement.

it hurts.. He was 2 years younger then me..
At least the last thing he did was what he loved... Thats quite somethin..

RIP

damn... such sad news...

freak crash

Very sad. I was hoping so much that he made it.

Rest in peace Anthoine.

I think it’s fair that we do not apportion blame, that we don’t start saying what if, who did what. It’s just happened and it’s raw. Hubert was a great driver and we are all deeply saddened by this tragic accident. We take time and reflect on things. There are no words to describe on how people are feeling, especially his family and friends. RIP Antoine Hubert.

Motorsports.

We love it for the thrills, we love it when it looks dangerous, we love it when the driver walks away. When it's close to limit, it's rewarding and addrenaline flows.


But these moments...it always hurts like when we lose someone close to us, someone we love. Because we share the same passion.


Farewell, Antoine Hubert.

Let's face it, Alesi is in F2 only because of his name. He doesn't have the talent to compete at this level IMO. I won't be surprised if Trident pulls the plug on him after this season but he's linked to them for years so Idk anymore.

Totally unneccessary & avoidable death

I'm sorry, but what did Alesi do? Lost control or had technical problem? I only see a chain reaction with the most shocking consequences.

He was the first car to spin. It seems like Hubert must have made slight contact with Alesi after that, and spun into the tires himself before Correa arrived.
