Kevin Magnussen says he was lucky to escape uninjured from his huge accident at the Macau Grand Prix on Sunday.
The son of former F1 driver Jan Magnussen was in fight with William Buller when his Dallara took off after colloding with his rival’s car.
Magnussen hit the debris fences at more than 260 km/h, which completely destroyed his car. Fortunately, no one was injured in the accident.
"I'm really happy to be here right now," said Magnussen.
"I hit Buller, took off and hit the fence. When I went up in the air, I closed my eyes, so I don't really know what happened. I need to look at the video to understand."
Kevin Magnussen only suffers a minor leg injury.
