I would echo those thoughts, watching it live I feared the worst and was amazed when the initial reports suggested he was in one piece – even a broken leg would appear a relatively minor injury considering the magnitude of the accident.

I’ve got a BMW myself, hopefully there road cars are built as good!

I’m just amazed he survived, let alone with such (relatively) limited injury. Indeed a testament to how well built the modern F1 car is.
