The impact of Max Verstappen's crash was huge. The photos of the RB16B after it was brought out of the tyre wall shows this. The blow is not only huge for Verstappen, but also for Red Bull Racing. Since 2021 there is a budget cap in Formula 1 and repairing this damage will be a big expense.

With Verstappen, everything seems to go well, despite the fact that he had to deal with 51G on his body. The Dutchman was especially a bit light-headed and will therefore have a CT scan at the hospital in the UK as a precaution.

It is to be hoped that the engine of Verstappen already has some kilometres behind it, because given the damage we should not be surprised if there is permanent damage found by Honda.
