First images of Colapinto's crash leaked: that was a heavy hit!

Alpine has so far made no further statements about Franco Colapinto's crash during a tyre test in Hungary, except that the Argentine has been medically examined and is found to be okay. However, some images from after the incident are already circulating on social media.

An F1 fan has posted the first photos on their X-account immediately after the crash, showing that Colapinto's car is heavily damaged after coming into contact with the tyre barrier. It can also be seen that rescue personnel are with Colapinto at Turn 11 of the Hungaroring.

It is still unclear whether Alpine can continue the Pirelli test. Teammate Pierre Gasly is in any case busy with a TPC, a test with a two-year-old F1 car on the same circuit.
