    Wow, the medical car driver and doctor were right on it. No hesitation about going into the fire. Incredible.

    ...and people think Nascar is "backwards"
    Indycar and sports cars would have a tire barrier there, Nascar a safer wall

    That was shocking, seeing the car explode and the melted cockpit. Someone was watching over Romain.

    I have never understood this with F1, they have of these barriers that should not be around for cars with with such sharp nose designs.

    Armco design is so bad, he went through the wall!

    That we're discussing that level of injury - severe though it is -- is nothing short of amazing.

    I just hope his lungs haven't been affected. Lauda comes to mind.

    Hats off to the marshal who came running from across the track and was the first to get his fire bottle on the inferno as the doctor went in to extract Grosjean.

    Hate to think what the outcome would be had he lost consciousness.
    Glad he’s in one piece but wth was he thinking?
    Zero spatial awareness and yet he’s been in F1 for 150+ races.

    Has there been a fireball like that from a crash since Lauda? I'm not an enormous F1 scholar so I ask out of genuine curiosity.
