He's got a broken leg - still much much better than what would have happened to him not so many years ago in a similar accident.

Edit - okies ,now the news is getting here it is only a mild concussion and a sprained ankle , Deffinately a lot safer cars than not so long ago

Saw it as it happened last night.

The first thing that went through my mind was Senna and his accident. Thankfully things have improved in F1 since those days.

Amazing footage - just glad he's ok.

Very lucky

Good race, glad to see Hamilton on top. Ferraris were nowhere and Raikonnen is proving to be vastly overrated. Alonso also doesn't seem to be handling Hamilton too well.

Same here, my livingroom went dead for a while. We all thought he was seriously injured or worse.

Here is a good pic of the forces in play. The concrete wall is moved! (Also note Scott Speed in the armchair :rotfl

Edit: They say he was doing 280km\h when he hit the wall.
