Video: Zhou Guanyu Escapes Serious Injury After Horror Crash In British Grand Prix
Zhou Guanyu said the halo safety device "saved me today" after he escaped uninjured from the horror multi-car smash at the start of Sunday's British Grand Prix. Zhou's Alfa Romeo was catapulted upside down, the Chinese rookie's head saved by his car's roll hoop-halo as it skidded off across a gravel trap and over tyre barriers into the catch fencing, where it bounced back to finish semi-upright in a stationary position. Marshalls rushed to Zhou trapped in his stricken car. Detailed replays of the accident were not available immediately until Zhou had been rescued from his car.
