Marcus Ericsson walks away from huge FP2 crash at Monza
MONZA, Italy -- Sauber driver Marcus Ericsson walked away from a huge accident during second practice for the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.
The Swedish driver lost control of his car immediately after hitting the brakes at 220mph and smashed into the crash barrier lining the left side of the circuit on the run down to Turn 1.
The accident happened at the fastest section of the track -- which is also one of the fastest points on the F1 calendar -- making for dramatic pictures as the Sauber rolled three times before coming to a halt in the run-off at Turn 1.
