Imola F1 qualifying interrupted twice by huge crashes
Yuki Tsunoda avoided major injury in a terrifying crash on his first flying lap in Emilia Romagna GP F1 qualifying
Formula 1 qualifying at Imola has been interrupted twice early on by major crashes triggering red flags - with first Yuki Tsunoda and then Franco Colapinto escaping without major injury.
Tsunoda's crash
On his first flying lap in Q1, Tsunoda lost the rear of his car quickly as he hit the left-hand apex kerb on the entry to the second chicane (Villeneuve).
He spun backwards into the tyre barrier with such force the car was catapulted up and onto the barrier, rolling as it did so, before coming back down to a stop in the gravel.
Tsunoda emerged on his own, seemingly OK, but was inevitably taken to the medical centre as a precaution and his car was heavily damaged all round by such a violent crash. A huge impact for Tsunoda at Turn 6 but he's out of the car and seems okay
