Valtteri Bottas endured a big shunt at the Mexico City Grand Prix, the Finn careering off and into the barriers at high speed midway through the race.
Valtteri Bottas confirmed he is uninjured following a heavy race-ending crash during the Mexico City Grand Prix at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The incident occurred on Lap 46 when the front-left suspension on his Cadillac appeared to fail at the end of the main straight. Bottas slid across the Turn 1 runoff area and struck the barriers rearwards, prompting a precautionary medical check.
Bottas thanked the medical staff and the FIA for their safety protocols, expressing disappointment at another unfinished race after starting from the back due to power unit penalties. Cadillac Team Principal Marcin Budkowski confirmed the team is investigating the mechanical failure, marking a repeat of a similar suspension issue suffered by teammate Sergio Perez earlier in the season in Canada.
