Felipe Massa Crash 2009 Hungary (Massa's Face After Crash)


Back



A bizarre accident during qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix put Ferraris Felipe Massa in hospital. He suffered bone damage to his skull after a suspension piece from the Brawn of Rubens Barrichello was thrown into his helmet, ripping away its side and causing an injury just above his left eye. He was travelling in excess of 150mph when the missile — an internal spring from the rear damper of the Brawn weighing 800 grams — hit him. He immediately lost consciousness, hitting the brake and throttle pedals. The Ferrari raced straight into the tyre barriers on the outside of the Hungarorings turn four. Massa soon regained consciousness and had to be sedated in the car by medical crew before he was taken by stretcher to the adjacent medical centre. From there, he was flown to a Budapest hospital with skull damage and concussion. An operation on his skull was reported by Ferrari to have been successful last night and he was put into a controlled coma to minimise brain swelling.
