FORMULA ONE’s Mexican Grand Prix has been suspended after Kevin Magnussen’s car burst into flames. The F1 star’s Haas car crashed into the barriers after appearing to suffer a right-rear suspension failure when driving over a kerb. Magnussen exited the car without incident following the crash between turns 7 and 8. However, as he sat on the side of the track the back of the car could then be seen on fire. Magnussen walked to the medical car to be taken to the medical centre following the crash. There had been 35 laps of the 71 lap race at the Mexico City circuit completed at the time of the crash.
