Bearman was diagnosed with a right knee contusion but no fractures. The crash has intensified concerns over Formula 1's 2026 energy management regulations.
In his first public comments since the heavy crash at last month's Japanese Grand Prix, Haas driver Oliver Bearman has blamed Franco Colapinto for not leaving enough space amid a 50km/h speed differential, calling the incident 'unacceptable' after drivers had discussed such risks in pre-race briefings.
