George Russell said he felt thankful Formula One cars are equipped with a Halo safety device after crashing out of the Belgian Grand Prix.
On the 10th lap Russell was forced to take evasive action to avoid Antonio Giovinazzi's Alfa Romeo after the Italian driver lost control of his car at the Les Fagnes corner. Russell had to drive to the right to avoid Giovinazzi's car as it bounced off the wall and back into the racing line.
Russell's car made contact with the front-left wheel of Giovinazzi's car, which had come loose from the car, sending the Williams straight into the tyre barrier on the other side of the track.
