He was able to leave at 10 p.m. since no significant injuries were detected. Undoubtedly, he will be sore for a few days to recover from the huge impact he suffered laterally, the weak point of single-seaters.<\/p>\n
But after his departure, the Dutchman did not mince his words towards the reactions of Lewis Hamilton’s fans, who celebrated his off-track excursion: \u00ab Glad to be okay.
