Romain Grosjean speaks for the first time from hospital bed after Bahrain Grand Prix crash
Romain Grosjean has spoken for the first time since his crash at the Bahrain Grand Prix. The Haas driver took to Instagram to assure Formula One fans that he is in a good condition after his Haas car was left a flaming wreck following a horrible incident on the first lap of the race.
Despite the horrible nature of the crash, which saw Grosjean’s car split the barriers and the chassis cut in half, the racer has escaped without major injuries.
He has suffered burns to the hands, as seen in his Instagram video, but fortunately nothing more given the crash would have ended his life if not for the halo that protects his cockpit.
Grosjean said: “Hello everyone, just wanted to say, I’m OK. Well, sort of OK *wiggles fingers*. Thank you very much for all the messages.
“I wasn’t for the halo some years ago but I think it’s the greatest thing we’ve brought to Formula One and without it I wouldn’t be able to speak to you today.
