WILLIAMS driver Logan Sargeant suffered a horror crash during practice for the Dutch Grand Prix this morning.

His car, which was travelling at around 110mph before it crashed, immediately burst into flames.

But Sargeant thankfully escaped the wreckage unharmed and walked away without any assistance.

Williams team principal James Vowles later confirmed that he was taken to the medical centre as a precaution.

The race was red-flagged for over 40 minutes as a result while stewards removed debris from the track and fixed the damaged barriers.

Although the fire was quickly extinguished, extensive damage to Sargeant’s car means he may not be able to take part in qualifying.

Photographers at turn four were forced to briefly evacuate the area after the F1 star hit the barrier due to impact.

Sargeant walked back to the paddock after being assessed at the medical centre.

However, he was left baffled when someone bizarrely asked him for a selfie – just moments after he escaped the terrifying crash.
