Williams reserve driver Luke Browning has suffered a huge crash at the Suzuka's iconic 130R corner during Super Formula testing.
The 24-year-old will compete in the Japanese series in 2026 alongside his F1 duties for the Grove-based squad.
In treacherous conditions at the home of the Japanese Grand Prix, the British driver lost control of his car approaching the famous turn, spinning into the barriers, which subsequently sent him skyward.
After the car flipped, it landed upside down on the otherside of the tyre wall with a considerable impact. Thankfully, Browning was able to get out and walk away from the massive incident.
Last year, he fought for the F2 title, ultimately coming up short of the eventual champion Leonardo Fornaroli, finishing fourth with eight podiums and a victory.
