Heavy crash during FP3
The Haas F1-team confirms this on Twitter. Schumacher cannot compete because of damage to the chassis of his VF-21. The team needs all the time to build up the car for Sunday's race. Schumacher will also need a new gearbox, so he might also get a penalty.
During the third free practice Schumacher lost the rear of his car in the Casino corner. He hit the wall quite hard with his left side. Schumacher himself was unhurt.
