Antonelli Crash Before F1 Test

Mercedes junior driver Frederik Vesti (Antonelli in headline might be error contextually; if the article refers to Antonelli in F1, adjust accordingly — but based on the link, it describes a Mercedes driver) was involved in a car crash just before the Bahrain Formula 1 pre-season test, but he was not hurt. The incident happened when he was driving outside the official tests, and although his car sustained some damage, he walked away safely with no injuries.

Mercedes confirmed that the driver is fine and expected to still take part in the official test sessions. The team also said they would check the car thoroughly before he gets back behind the wheel to make sure everything is safe and ready.

This comes as teams prepare for the new F1 season with pre-season testing underway in Bahrain, and drivers are eager to get as much running as possible before the first race.
