Colapinto sustains 50G in Vegas qualifying crash

Franco Colapinto’s crash in qualifying for the Las Vegas Grand Prix registered at over 50G, with his participation in Saturday’s race in doubt. The Argentine was on his final flying lap of Q2 and trying to reach the top ten shootout when he clipped the wall on the inside of Turn 16, sending his Williams across the track and into the outside concrete barrier at high speed. The huge impact moved the wall back significantly, while Colapinto’s car suffered major damage. Williams has now confirmed that the 21-year-old will have to be assessed on Saturday to see if he is fit to race, while it will also be analyzing the car’s status following a number of heavy crashes in Brazil.
