He was wearing a boot in the take immediately after Will made that claim. There appears to me a lack of clarity in his broken, or not broken foot. Perhaps this happened jumping off the guard rail? Either way, his foot was injured enough to wear a boot, and he stated in his interview also on the F1 channel that his foot is broken. 🤷🏻

Some things that need improvement.. 1. Suits of the medical car driver and delegate should be more fire resistant. 2. Fire extinguishers should be easier to arm.. The fire marshal was struggling to arm the fire extinguisher way too long. 3. The fuel tank of the car needs more protection. 4. Safety of those kinds of barrier should be looked into. 5. Racing gloves should be thicker to protect the driver from flames and gravel strikes. 6. Something must be done about the melting visor.. Safety glass would be a better alternative i think

Crazy how Grosjean basically showcased a ''test'' of all the F1 safety features. HANS kept him conscious. His enforced cockpit kept him safe. The Halo prevented his head being hit by the guardrail. His suit helped him to withstand the fire. His gloves helped him to keep his hands from having just minor burns. His helmet prevented the fire from entering and it also helped to keep him conscious alongside HANS. Also with the medical car following them and the Marshall having a fire extinguisher. Any other driver would've most certainly died before any of these things were introduced. No HANS and modern day Helmet? Probably unconscious, unable to escape the flames. No modern day suit? The fire would've probably fatally injured him. No Halo? The guardrail would've either injured his head traumatically or even tragically and fatally cut. And without the medical car + Marshall with fire extinguisher, it could've been harder for Grosjean to escape. Hope they can keep improving this to a point where the cockpit becomes near indestructible.

So glad F1 made a Netflix documentary on them! It has renewed my love for the sport especially after this virus. Also, it has given me insight on how the teams work, how the the sport is from the inside, and learned about each driver’s personal life which is very interesting to say the least. I know we all live a private personal life and most times we don’t realize how boring or exciting it is because we live it everyday so it’s interesting to see other peoples lives. As a normal everyday person, most of us don’t live that lavish lifestyle but one can dream and aspire to it. It’s also, nice to see those very humble guys in their day to day lives.

As much as I commend all of the innovations made already that most likely saved romain’s life, I will say that this crash is evidence that the Armco style barriers have practically no place at a formula one circuit, and I imagine that the SAFER style barriers or even tire barriers would be much more effective in that they crumple to absorb impact without being able to shear the cars in half quite like the split Armco barrier did in this case.

Indeed. Even if you were watching it live, and I wasn't, it would take several seconds for a camera to focus on the scene and several more for the director to decide whether to cut to the accident. Then your brain has to register that Grosjean is in the flaming section of the car not the other bit that's sitting next to the barrier. I know the guys in the medical car were trying to figure out where Grosjean was as they approached the scene and were as shocked as anyone to realise that the cockpit section was the part that was engulfed in flames. As an aside it's a testament to the training the drivers do that even when disorientated Grosjean had the presence of mind to go through all the necessary steps to extricate himself from that inferno.

The fact that he almost sat down after trying hard to get out of that burning cockpit, smiling and knowing that this is the end, is heartwrenching. But the last thing that forced him to go against his mind and to do whatever possible to get out of that car... was his family, his children, his wife. How powerful family can be. How the bond would be. I just salute him for his courage. Respect.

When fighting a fire like that, sometimes you need to walk up with the fire extinguisher going to create almost like a screen to protect you from the intense heat, even if you're not aiming at the fire itself. It's so you can actually get close enough to target the fire.
