    That’s a relief. I was beginning to feel like this crash might be a turning point for him with the team, but if it wasn’t his fault then he still has time to prove himself.

    That’s good for him. I was really getting worried about his longevity in this sport.

    In all honesty he’ll get another year I think. He’s the Williams academy driver who showed the most promise, and if Williams can show that they can get a seat for a young driver it’ll help their academy significantly. From what I remember hearing he wasn’t supposed to be in the car till next year anyways, so they may give him a grace period.

    Palmer from the F1TV cast was talking about how the car suddenly lost grip near the front right.
