I heard it on the radio! Couldn't get a helicopter to air lift him because of the weather so had to be taken by ambulance to a hospital an hour away. Terrible  |

"That race should never have went ahead under those weather conditions. Alonso was the only one with a brain. Thoughts are with the bianchi family xx"
massa apparently called for the race to be stopped 5 laps before the accident

On the first two behind the safety car I think it was 6 or 7 drivers radioed through to the teams saying they couldnt see anything infront of them. that alone should have had it called off x |

if my memory serves me right im sure the rules regarding racing in the rain are the same as for world superbikes whereby they can call the race off if the first 3 or 5 in the lead call for it

It's not looking well for the poor kid. Apparently he has only a 10% chance of regaining consciousness with the type of head injury that he has.
That was such a freak accident, horrific tbh. |
