Monaco qualifying halted by Perez accident
Qualifying in Monaco was suspended with a little over two minutes of Q3 remaining after a heavy shunt for Sauber's Sergio Perez. Perez lost control at high speed exiting the tunnel and impacted side-on with the barrier at the Turn 10.
It took several minutes for medics to extract the Mexican from his car, after which he was transferred to an ambulance and taken to hospital. Sauber’s Monisha Kaltenborn reported Perez was conscious and responding to questions.While team mate Kamui Kobayashi qualified 13th, Perez - should he be fit to race - will start tenth on the grid.
Further details on Perez’s condition as they become available.
