61: Grosjean's Survival Wasn't By Accident

61: Grosjean's Survival Wasn't By Accident

[ad_1]

Was Romain Grosjean’s survival from his crash in the 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix a miracle? In our Pits to Podium (https://bit.ly/pitstopodium) segment, Soumil and Kunal attribute Grosjean’s survival to the FIA’s relentless pursuit of safety over many seasons. Yes, Grosjean was lucky and his guardian angel was on duty on Sunday, but citing luck as the sole reason for his survival (or labeling it a miracle!) would do disservice to the progress FIA has made over the seasons. We discuss the crash, the recovery and how various elements came together to save Grosjean’s life and of course, give us a Formula 1 Grand Prix despite the delay. 

Also in this episode, we talk about yet another dominant victory for Lewis Hamilton, Valtteri Bottas’ incorrect setup, Sergio Perez’s missed podium, Mclaren jumping Racing Point in the Constructors’ Championship and Pierre Gasly’s one-stopper to P6. Tune in!
