Formula One drivers Zhou Guanyu and George Russell were involved in a scary crash early in Sunday's British Grand Prix:

Zhou's car flipped upside and into the wall after a collision on the first turn of the opening lap at Silverstone Circuit in England.

Though the Chinese driver remained in his car for several minutes, he was able to leave on a stretcher and was moving and conscious, per BBC Sport.

"Important message from race control: Zhou is OK," Alfa Romeo said, per Autosport.

Russell was still quick to check on his fellow driver after the crash:

The Englishman was not allowed to continue the race after getting out of his car.
