Zhou's shocking accident at Silverstone

There were moments of uncertainty and restlessness, but eventually, the FIA reported to the media that emergency teams arrived quickly at the accident site in order to rescue Zhou. Zhou's vehicle had been traveling at high speed along the track, before it crashed into the first barrier.

TREMENDOUS! It was Guanyu Zhou's tragic accident at Silverstone. The halo has once more saved a life.

The halo, which protects cars from damage, saved the driver from being unconscious. He was then taken to Williams' medical center to be accompanied by Alexander Albon. The chilling footage of Zhou running upside-down for at least 100m of track before colliding into guardrails was not shown until it was discovered that Zhou was in good health.

British driver George Russell of Mercedes was also involved and had to be ejected. This ended his streak of being the only driver to finish each race in the top five in this season's championship. Russell looked like he was cut from the back and then hit Zhou.

Esteban Ocon, Fernando Alonso’s French teammate in Alpine, returned to the pits carrying three and a quarter tires. He then hit the asphalt with the tire.

After a turbulent start, Lewis Hamilton took the third spot after Max Verstappen (Red Bull), the leader of the World Championship, was taken by Carlos Sainz.
