Interesting boom sound prior to crash.

And Merc have confirm running is over for today due to the FW failure. No word on whether that's it for the week.

Looks very much like an engine failure with the boom and blue rooster tail.

Isn't that the same wall he hit last year? What does that wall have against Lewis haha


W05 looks wonderful. Best nose solution. There are numerous bits I'm sure we have yet to see.

No, the front wing came off, so the front tyres are locked. The "boom" is just the sound of the crash, the audio is not synced.

That would be tire smoke from being all locked up

The Audio is synced... The sound is just the breaking sound of the FW

while also sending off 4 Hamilton players to make it more interesting"

At 0:08 you think that's the sound of the front wing? The wing was broken very early in the video, way before we can clearly see the car.

At 0:08 is the sound of the car hitting the barrier, before it hits the barrier. The wing breaks approx 00:05.

"For me it's an incredibly positive start to be the first car out on track and completing a good number of laps.

"Of course, it's unfortunate to end the day early when everyone has worked so hard and we had looked like easily completing the most mileage of anyone here today."

How do you account for the skid across the gravel into the barrier all in sync to the sound?

Good point, looking closely the gravel is set back from the curb. The sound at 0:08 is just the car hitting the gravel.
