The seven-time world champion was unhurt in the incident and Ferrari are confident the incident will not impact the rest of its schedule.
Lewis Hamilton took the SF-23 out on track this morning and was involved in a crash – Lewis lost control in the final stretch of the track and hit the protective barriers.
