An accident that Evans commented on the Motorsports website: “Basically I was defending hard on Alex coming into turn 18. We were really close to the wall, and he didn't really give up.

Was there room?

I'm not sure I need to see the slow motion.

I hope there was and that I didn't do anything unreasonable.

He hooked up my rear wheel and had a plane crash, it was really awful.

It was not a pleasant time.

At one point, I saw him pass overhead, it wasn't great.

But the main thing is that he is doing well. "

We are thankful that Alex Lynn is well after this accident.

Testament to the medical staff, marshals and the @FIA who keep our sport safe.

Indeed, despite the violence of the shock, Lynn, transported to the hospital in the wake, finally got out a few hours later.

"I spoke to him, he seems to be doing well but he left for the hospital as a precaution to make sure that there will be nothing once the shock is over," Evans said.

The accident had forced the race management to put an end to a race finally won by Sam Bird at the wheel of his Jaguar in front of the Dutchman Robin Frijns.
