NASCAR champion Kyle Larson experiences the lowest-lows and the highest-highs
Formula One driver Max Verstappen says it was a “big relief” to see Romain Grosjean jump out of his car after a horrific crash at the Bahrain GP on Sunday.
The incident occurred on the third corner of the first lap as Grosjean plowed into the barriers following contact with Daniil Kvyat.
The Frenchman said he “saw death coming” after the car split in half and was instantly engulfed in flames.
Dramatic live footage showed Grosjean jump out from the burning wreckage after what he says was 28 seconds.
“It was a big relief to see Romain jumping out of the car. You can really see the safety of Formula One cars. It was incredible that he basically jumped out of the car like that,” Verstappen told CNN Sport.
Stewards and medics attend to Romain Grosjean after the crash.

“At the time, when we were driving back to the pits, I could see the flames which were very scary.
“I was asking on the radio, ‘Is he out? Is he out?’ Then we saw the footage that he did jump out and that’s the most important thing.
“Then you just have to wait for the injury report but luckily it wasn’t too bad.”
