From a physical standpoint, Liam feels absolutely fine.
X-rays for Ash this morning revealed a fractured sternum, but apparently it just feels a little sore. Otherwise she is ok.

They both agree on an estimated impact speed of around 60km/h – enough to push the barrier a good 4 meters out of place (see attached pic). Airbags deployed obviously, but neither of their heads hit them.

I'm gutted for Liam – he's such a nice guy and was looking forward to doing more motorsport and improving the car
The best way to look at it is that despite a pretty decent knock they are ok!
