@mofomat@CroftyF1 That didn’t end their race? And Lewis hardly lost out? It’s obviously Max’s fault that Lewis didn’t have room but that’s not the concern here.
These are the sorts of posts that drive me nuts. Please stop speculating about what happened at Brands Hatch today. There has been no official statement from BARC, MSV, Brands or Police. Speculation helps nobody. Thinking of those truly involved right now 🧡
📰 STATEMENT - July 31
The British Automobile Racing Club is saddened to confirm that as a result of an accident that occurred during a race meeting at Brands Hatch circuit today (Saturday 31 July), a volunteer marshal tragically lost their life.

@MissCarrieW@domvincent77@RantasaurusVex @ChrisPercival_ @mcintyrejack@Brands_Hatch We were sat in the grandstand with people standing at the front looking over it for well over 30 mins so that response wasn’t quick but obviously they had the actual incident to deal with so not sure what more they could’ve done. Wasn’t a big event though so staff seamed limited
@MissCarrieW@domvincent77@RantasaurusVex @ChrisPercival_ @mcintyrejack@Brands_Hatch Can confirm. Spectators were sat for around 2.5-3 hours with absolutely no updates. Stream was cut and Brands Radio was cut. Only heard a brief tannoy announcement that racing was cancelled at about 4pm, hours after
Last I saw at Brands Hatch before leaving was the car wreckage covered by a tent which was being guarded by police cars. Absolutely praying that those involved are/will be okay 🙏🏻 Was sat in the Paddock Hill stand when it happened so hope everyone else who witnessed it is okay❤️
@KateStudge @Brands_Hatch Still sat here with no news at Brands. Livestream was cut, Brands radio has gone silent but the air ambulance took off about 5 mins ago and the ambulances are just leaving the track now 🙏🏻
The whole of Formula 1 wishes to pay tribute to Prince Philip, The Duke of Edinburgh, who dedicated his whole life to Great Britain and served his country with pride and devotion.
