It was the first time she's driven the MR-01. She tested the Renault R29 in Paul Ricard last year.

Seems like she might have been stuck under the lorry with her throttle jammed open, pushing the car further and further under it.


Thank you for this extra graphic detail, I'm sure we all needed it.

I hope she gets out of it alright, sounds nasty.

After a while we thought we saw some movement of her hands but she appeared to be unconscious or unable to move for quite some time.


:/

Fire engine was there immediately, ambulance within minutes.

Stable is good, right?

Certainly sounds more positive than what I'd feared.

If you look at Phill's picture it looks like it just happened. They bystanders barely seem to respond to what happened....
