The restart was clean but not without drama. Thanks everyone for your kind messages," Zhou tweeted after the crash "It was a very special day that I will not forget. After a pit stop and with his performance hampered, his race was effectively over much to the delight of some at Silverstone who had jeered the driver over the weekend. "I'm ok, all clear. The race had to be restarted after Zhou's car was flipped upside down and crashed into a fence having been clipped shortly after the start.

The Haas driver had a look to the inside of Stowe with a couple of laps remaining and then nearly hit Verstappen with a bold move at the first part of Club on the final tour before backing out of certain contact at the final corner just a few moments later. Gasly was able to carry on relatively unscathed. Ocon stopped before Copse and the safety car was therefore called out, with Ferrari leaving Leclerc out on his aging hards despite appearing to have time to call him in, as it did for Sainz and Mercedes did for Hamilton. With Ferrari opting to leave things alone, Hamilton was soon homing in on the pair and was just under four seconds behind when Sainz was called in to ease Ferrari's quandary at the end of lap 20 to take the hards. After this, Leclerc edged clear to lead by just under a second, but was matching Hamilton's times up front and so on lap 33 the Briton was called in to make his switch to the hards, but a getting his used left-front medium off took slightly longer than normal and so it ended up being a 4.3s stop that meant he came out behind the two red cars. Verstappen quickly shot to a lead above one second, but his lead only lasted two laps as he was then slow through Maggotts and Becketts with what he suspected was a puncture picked up after running over the kerbs at Copse on lap 12, but which Red Bull later explained was damage to a small winglet at the rear of his car. Verstappen immediately pitted for another set of mediums, Sainz having already moved back to the lead and Leclerc threatening, with Hamilton not far behind after he had dispatched Norris into Brooklands on the lap after Perez stopped early on. That would soon mean Perez had to pit for a new wing, which released the battling Hamilton and Lando Norris, while up front Sainz had established a lead over a second by the time the DRS was activated on lap five of 52. There, with Leclerc obliged by Verstappen to take the outside line, the pair clashed lightly and the Ferrari had to take to the runoff before his right-front wing endplate, which was damaged in the earlier contact with Perez, flying off on the run to Copse and hitting the second Red Bull's front wing right-side and causing similar harm. But Leclerc sent a bold move to Perez's inside at Turn 4 and was able to force his way back to third, with the Monegasque driver then getting such good drive onto the Wellington straight he was able to attack Verstappen at Brooklands. But with Verstappen not backing down, Sainz was forced to hang on around the outside of Abbey but did so to thrillingly retain the lead, with Leclerc again making a slow getaway behind the two leaders, this time with Perez getting by off the line. As Leclerc was making an attempt to get back ahead of the Mercedes through Village and the Loop a couple of corners later, the race was red-flagged due to the multi-car pile-up behind the leaders at Abbey.

Carlos Sainz won a thrilling British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday, overcoming his Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc to score his first Formula 1 win.

The race was decided with a frantic 10-lap dash to the finish. Hamilton finally made the move for third stick into Stowe using DRS. Ferrari swapped its cars over on lap 31, with minimal protest from Sainz as he couldn’t hit the target laptime being asked of him. In a wild restart, Sainz passed Leclerc for the win, with Red Bull’s Sergio Perez surging up to second, ahead of Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes after some amazingly close racing. Meantime, Tsunoda spun into his team-mate Gasly at Village, relegating both AlphaTauris from the points and getting himself a penalty. The shunt was triggered when Pierre Gasly’s AlphaTauri was pinched between Zhou and George Russell (Mercedes), the latter spinning into Zhou’s right-rear tyre and sending him flying.

Pérez fought with Leclerc and Hamilton brilliantly ducked up the inside of the pair of them on the final corner but could not hold the place as they came back at him at Village and he dropped once more to fourth. Hamilton had pushed hard and pitted on lap 34, the stop was slow – four seconds – and he emerged in third behind Sainz and six seconds off Leclerc. However Verstappen then slowed and believed he had a puncture as Sainz re-passed again through Stowe and the Dutchman had to pit for new rubber. That Zhou was relatively unharmed was a testament to the safety standards of the modern cars. The race was almost immediately stopped after a multi-car shunt involved Zhou’s Alfa Romeo suffering a high-speed impact with the barriers, in which his car was flipped and came to a halt between the armco barrier and the catch fencing and it took time to extract him. It was Sainz’s first F1 win on the occasion of his 150th race and could not have been a more gripping affair.

Alfa Romeo's Zhou Guanyu has escaped serious injury following a terrifying Turn 1 incident that forced the Formula 1 British Grand Prix to be red-flagged.

Zhou was extracted from the car and taken to the track’s medical centre. The Alfa Romeo team later told Zhou's team-mate Valtteri Bottas: "Zhou is conscious, he is talking, there are no fractures. Russell later stopped at the first corner with his left rear tyre having been detached from the wheel.

I told the marshals to leave the car and when I got back it was on the back of the flatbed. They said on Twitter: "We can confirm that after the red flag, a number of people entered the track. An FIA statement read: "We can confirm that after the red flag, several people attempted to enter the track. Next thing I know I got touched, was in the side of Zhou and that was it. "Ultimately we took a risk starting on the hard because I made a mistake in qualifying and we were starting out of position. The driver of Car 24 (Zhou) is under observation in the medical centre.

Carlos Sainz Jr. won his his first career Formula One race on Sunday with a victory at the British Grand Prix — the most dramatic race so far this season.

Former champion Nelson Piquet used a racial slur and homophobic language to describe Hamilton, F1's only Black driver, in interviews from last year which came to wider attention this week. F1 said they were being "dealt with by the local authorities." "I gave it everything," said Hamilton, who was third in Canada two weeks ago and hoped Mercedes is on a comeback. Zhou's car flipped upside-down and cleared a tire barrier before smashing into a fence. But a safety car came out and Ferrari brought Sainz into the pits for fresher, grippier soft tires. It began with a frightening first-lap crash and ended with intense wheel-to-wheel battles for the podium positions.

Zhou Guanyu credited the F1 halo with saving the life of the Alfa Romeo driver after a frightening first-lap crash in the British Grand Prix.

Obviously gutted to end the race this way and I'm sorry for the team and the fans. That was a scary incident and all credit to the marshals and medical team for their quick response. The group also tried to disrupt some Premier League soccer games in England in recent months. It was stuck between the tire wall and the fence, delaying efforts to extricate Zhou. Alex Albon of Williams also was taken to the medical center, and his team later said he’d been transferred by helicopter to Coventry Hospital for a precautionary check. Zhou’s car slid upside-down across the gravel and his Alfa Romeo seemed to be wedged between fencing and a tire barrier at the first corner.

Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) I can hold on to the lead and try to do my own race, pushing from the beginning.” We can still have a very good race.” “Also, it was more difficult to get temperature into the intermediates in these conditions.

Zhou Guanyu slid upside down across the gravel before flipping up and over a barrier, but thankfully escaped serious injury.

It was stuck between the tire wall and the fence, delaying efforts to extricate Zhou. Alex Albon of Williams was also taken to the medical centre and then his team said he'd been transferred by helicopter to Coventry Hospital for a precautionary check. Zhou's car slid upside-down across the gravel and his Alfa Romeo seemed to be wedged between fencing and a tire barrier at the first corner.

Fans at Silverstone watched the Ferrari driver hold onto his victory as a three-way battle ensued behind him late in the incident-packed grand prix.

And there’s no doubt we had the pace to come back to P6 today.” After barrel-rolling over the barrier, Zhou was stuck between the metal fence and tire barriers, a narrow gap with nowhere to go. The rookie and Williams driver Alex Albon, who was involved in a separate wreck, were both sent to the medical care center. “I don’t want the focus to be pointed towards my disappointing race but more towards his incredible race win and obviously a first win in Formula 1 is always extremely special. Pierre Gasly was between Russell and Zhou, but as the gap started to disappear, the AlphaTauri driver pulled back. Sainz was brought in for softs, and Leclerc commented over the radio how it would be “hard” to chase cars on soft tires in the closing stages. Binotto felt that the team’s strategy calls were “the right and proper ones at each single time,” and the only possible miscue was Leclerc staying out. “I’ve always been a team player, I will always be a team player and especially in Ferrari, I know the team is in front of me and my personal interests. “I gave myself the best chance to stay ahead, by pushing as much as I could, but to a point that I was destroying so much my front tire that it made total sense for Charles to go through, and I let him by as soon as the team told me to do so,” Sainz said. “Then we were hoping for more tire degradation on the softs, to give Charles, yeah, maybe a difficult three or four laps initially but then recovering later on, but the soft didn’t degrade as we were hoping.” Leclerc, who was the race leader, remained out on his hard tires—the only driver to still have them on when the rest of the field emerged. “I needed to stay in the race like I was trying to and then all of a sudden the safety car gave me the opportunity to get back on it.

“And next thing when I got back, the car was on the back of the flatbed.

In a radio statement, Alfa Romeo told Zhou’s teammate Valtteri Bottas: “Zhou is conscious, he is talking, there are no fractures. This was not the first collision in which the ‘halo’ device was instrumental in saving a driver from serious injury on Sunday -- Roy Nissany survived after another car driven by Dennis Hauger landed on top of his cockpit in which he was saved by the halo in the Formula 2 race. The field filed back to the pits after the collision as a specialist extraction crew attended Zhou, who remained in his car, until he was lifted clear.

Zhou Guanyu's horror accident at the start of Formula 1's British Grand Prix will, like every crash, be investigated in depth by the FIA.

Then that was followed by a continuous longitudinal load as it scraped along the track. All teams have to go through the crash tests on this before their cars are allowed on track. In all circumstances, the choice of a blade roll structure has been favoured over a traditional hoop owing to two factors: aerodynamic gains and weight.

Driver Zhou Guanyu says the halo device saved his life after a horror crash at Silverstone on Sunday.

"The other argument was whether it was affecting the driver's visibility, looking out of the cockpit. He says he is the latest in a series of drivers to be saved by the halo safety device. But it quickly proved its worth when it was introduced in 2018, following a campaign by the late FIA F1 director Charlie Whiting and the Grand Prix Drivers' Association. But a few years later Hamilton said it had saved his life in his crash at the Italian Grand Prix in 2021. After years of research it was found to be the only device that successfully passed the test of deflecting a wheel fired at it at 150mph. Halo is a wishbone-shaped titanium bar that sits on top of the cockpit of the car and wraps around the driver's head.
