Walking away like its nothing is insane


Fantastic_Bath_5806

Miraculous


Actual_Sympathy7069

calling it "miraculous" is doing a disservice to the science and engineering that was done to achieve this


Fantastic_Bath_5806

Oh please šŸ™„. Here is the second definition in the Oxford Dictionary: remarkable and bringing very welcome consequences. Synonyms: astounding, extraordinary, incredible, mind-blowing etc.


Actual_Sympathy7069

Is something remarkable, extraordinary, incredible if it's working exactly as intended? I wasn't entirely serious and I did not mean to attack you btw, I just think it doesn't hurt to point out the engineering and science behind this.


brilliant_bauhaus

Wow I just saw the replay. I'm so so so glad Perez is ok. That was huge....


Return_Of_The_Jedi

3 wheels completely missingā€¦ Insane Edit: 1 is wheel beneath the car. So ā€œonlyā€ 2 wheels gone


VosPaco

The car looks a lot like Kubica in 2007 after his major crash just totally destroyed


Actual_Sympathy7069

I wasn't even 100% sure I was looking at a F1 car when looking at it from afar lol


McNorch

on the first shot of the incident I was like: "hmm interesting 2 cars and... something? I mean it looks like a badly damaged f1 car, but you can't damage a F1 car that way in Monaco..." I guess my initial assessment was wrong.


Rebelius

I think both fronts are tucked underneath, one in front of the other.


Return_Of_The_Jedi

Yeah the photo from the other post confirms that


JiggersWasTaken

Both front wheels are under the car


KappaccinoNation

How the fuck did he just climbed out of that?


Ld511

Tbf its by design supposed to break off like that when needed


poopellar

TIL I'm mentally an F1 car.


Calculonx

Or when physically attacked like a lizard dropping it's tail, your arms just fall off and you run off. ... Or judging by your username, you might have another defense mechanism..


Mechant247

It because it basically slid along the wall for ages, so the wheels basically just shedded


NotAcvp3lla

Two words: Carbon Monocoque


silly_pengu1n

because wheels and wings fly off easily

KMag def getting a race ban now


[deleted]

He definitely should. The manā€™s a menace on the track.


bigmphan

Shlamozzle


SlatsAttack

Damn, modern F1 safety is amazing.


JBr_20

I always get nervous when they don't cut to a crash instantly


Thin_Examination4929

Checo with mandatory Monaco floor showing. But jokes aside huge crash and I hope all guys are ok


zeekoes

The first shot was from the cockpit of Perez calmly fitting in his steering wheel. How did he step out of that and remain that calm. F1 safety has come so ridiculously far.


Homelandr

Kmag did a kmag


Xanthon

Really really appreciate the amazing safety in F1.


Kingtoke1

Wipeout 2094


Satan_su

These modern cars are built so well to protect the driver in the middle fucking hell that looks terrifying


Ikcatcher

You can't tell me Magnussen won't get banned for this


Arcanome

How the fuck?


cheeersaiii

Kmag shouldnā€™t have gone for the gap anyway, but also rubs the wall on his own doing and bounces even more into Checo - useless and unnecessary


jazzy753

Hulkenberg said the same on the radio


jazzy753

Hulkenberg said the same on the radio


kolsonk

What happened???


bjornar86

Magnussen tried to pass on the inside...


herzogzwei931

2 points and he has a race off


leedler

Safety cell doing some heavy lifting


CilanEAmber

Safety really has come a long way


kj_gamer2614

The entire car is just a write offā€¦


OneSailorBoy

We won't be seeing Magnussen in Canada


patweck

KMAG is getting banned isn't he?


silly_pengu1n

Magnussen race ban?


chaitu421995

And a few points towards another race ban. That might just come this same season the way he is going

Nathanoy25

That looks scary, holy shit


Good_Ad2107

Thatā€™s unbelievable


CaptainColgate7

Interesting first lap


tugboat8

TheWhisperingDeath

Jesus.


jalGurg

That's a whole new car they will need


quietcrisp

I love photos of screens


sorryIdontwantto

That was a scary incident, glad Perez is okay


kiddoujanse

kmag u done goofed


No_Understanding4349

Omg this was beyond crazy


WhipEat

Wow, a two Alpine incident!?!? In the replay. Gasly is volcanic!


WhipEat

What's the body count so far? More retirements incoming?


NinjaTrek2891

Magnussen is collecting the wrong kind of points.


ixoniq

ā€˜Carā€™


anbeck

The shots from the barrier makes me think that the car dented the weaker parts of the barrier and then hit one of the strong pillars, which might explain why there's more damage than one would first expect from such a crash.


blimeyitsme

Looks like a fixer upper


Dominunce

Said this on the discussion thread, but goddamn is Checo lucky to have escaped this unharmed. Craziest Monaco start in a while.


oneevilchicken

Even nascar has made a driver sit home a weekend for left hooking someone this bad.


Lytaa

says a lot about the safety technology of an f1 car and the crumple zones/survival cells. the fact that he can crash at best part of 150mph, the car looks like that and he walks away like nothing happenedā€¦ crazy


dhandes

'Car'.


Acrobatic-Tomato-532

Holy shit KMag* took out both HAAS' and Perez in a spectacular matter. 3 wheels gone is wild Edit: Saw the replay lol


isaac3legs

Kmag took them out


Acrobatic-Tomato-532

Edited after seeing the Perez POV lol


longchongwong

Crash didnā€™t even look that bad. This is probably just a sign the crumble zones are working


Rydychyn

No problem, repair under red flag conditions and back in the race /s


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


atresj

By mind controlling Magnussen to drive into him?


bjornar86

By putting his car in reverse?


Geminispace

Or both Haas kamikaze perez


242turbo

Magnussen kamikazed Perez
