Mick Schumacher has confirmed that he is "feeling alright" after a crash which forced him out of the Monaco Grand Prix. The Haas driver's car seemed to split in two causing many on lookers to fear for the worst but the German driver walked away from the incident and has since said that he is ok.

"I'm feeling alright - obviously it's very annoying. I think in terms of pace we were definitely there, it's just a matter of keeping it on track, and unfortunately I wasn't able to do that," he said to BBC Sport.

"We just ended up being a little too wide, which is maybe a matter of 10cm at the end, and that was enough to lose all grip that you thought you had. And unfortunately the result is as it happened," he said.

Haas team principal Gunther Steiner added: "We obviously saw what happened. It's not very satisfactory having a big crash again. We need to see how we move forward from here."

The crash will be of serious concern to Haas who will have to pay multiple of thousands to repair the damage ahead of Baku.
