Mick Schumacher suffered a horrific crash in Jeddah after which he was airlifted to the hospital for precautionary checks.
Haas’ Mick Schumacher lost control of his VF-22 through a high-speed corner in Jeddah during Q2. He hit the barriers at Turn 12 tearing his car in two pieces at around 170 mph. Twitter has praised his uncle Ralf Schumacher for keeping calm throughout the incident.
Haas announced that the German is conscious, he is out of the car and is on his way to the medical centre for precautionary checks. Schumacher was airlifted to the hospital but he is reported to be “physically fine.”
Looking at the damage that the car suffered it seems like there will be only one Haas racing on Sunday. Kevin Magnussen finished the qualifying session at P10.
However, after a lengthy delay following the red flag caused by Schumacher, Red Bull’s Sergio Perez went ahead to take the pole position. He was followed by Ferrari Charles Leclerc in P2 and Carlos Sainz in P3.
