It has to be Maria. She's the only one driving today, and according to Marussia's twitter, she was about to go out a few minutes ago. Also, Sky are there, so maybe they caught footage. |

I'll keep updated about this one. edit: Silverstone was the race where Marussia would bring its first major upgrade. Maybe something failed? |

Sky just copied the BBC with that. The whole thing is quite worrying, given the lack of updates from Marussia and anyone there, except for a journalist who said what happened... |

It is believed the car hit a stationary lorry, believed to have been used to transport the car to the track. The driver's condition is not known. Emergency services have been called to the scene. BBC Cambridgeshire presenter Chris Mann, who witnessed the crash, said the car had completed a circuit when it "suddenly accelerated" into the back of the lorry.
