Romain Grosjean’s wrecked Haas F1 car from his fireball crash at the 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix will go on display for the first time
The burnt-out remnants of the VF-20 chassis will be displayed as part of the F1 Exhibition experience in Madrid next month.
Reflecting on his crash in an interview with the F1 Exhibition team, Grosjean said: “From my point of view, it was a big accident but I didn't realise the impact or how violent it was from the outside."My wife was actually watching that race with my dad and my kids. They will remember that moment their entire life."I had to break the headrest, punching it with my helmet and then I eventually managed to get my helmet through and stand up in the seat.
"It was 120 kilos of fuel plus the battery - both were on fire. Dr Jan Roberts, Alan from the medical car and one fireman were trying to open a gap in the fire to help me get out."The survival cell is there for you in case of a huge impact. I was intact inside the shell. The chassis is still in one piece, the halo is there and apart from the damage and burn it is still as it should be. I guess that saved my life.
