The start of race 3 of the Formula 2 Grand Prix gave way to a violent accident between Théo Pourchaire and Enzo Fittipaldi. The two pilots give news …
The start of race 3 of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix saw Théo Pourchaire and Enzo Fittipaldi to be victim of a terrible accident on the starting line.
The French stalled on the grid and failed to set off. Behind, the Brazilian leaps at full speed, but sees too late the ART Grand Prix stopping on the track. The two men collide violently … Directly, the medical car takes care of pilots who are transported to the nearest hospital from the Jeddah circuit.
Théo Pourchaire is the first pilot gave the news. He announces okay :
Hey everyone,
Just wanted to tell you that I’m globally fine ! For the moment I don’t know if it’s already the end of the season for me. But the most important is not that, that was a really big one and Enzo is injured.
I wish him the best recovery possible !

It wasn’t until later in the evening that Enzo Fittipaldi brings news to the general public on its Twitter account. He announces that he only has a broken heel and some superficial after-effects.
🇺🇸 Hey guys, I am very grateful that I only broke my heel and have some cuts and bruises. Thank you all for the messages, as well as the FIA and medical staff for taking great care of me. I am very happy that Theo is ok. I will be back on track soon and faster than ever. 🙏 pic.twitter.com/3aLqaEQtgn

The two drivers will be back on the circuits very soon, especially for the last race of the season in Abu Dhabi from December 10 to 12. Only a small doubt revolves around Enzo Fittipaldi for his participation in the next event. No official content has been posted from the teams or drivers yet.
