Sergio Perez escaped with a scare after a very serious crash just after the start of the Monaco Grand Prix. He was hit by Kevin Magnussen, after which the Red Bull Racing driver was a passenger and hit Nico Hulkenberg's Haas. All the drivers involved are fine, but there is little left of Perez's RB20.

Heavy crash for Perez in Monaco GP

Perez had to start the Monaco GP from 18th place after a disappointing qualifying session. Shortly after the start, things went horribly wrong for the Red Bull driver. He was hit by Magnussen, causing Perez to become a passenger and spin around in his Formula One car. Hulkenberg, in turn, was hit by the steering-less RB20.

Magnussen is lucky the stewards saw it as a racing incident. The Danish driver is just two points short of a race ban.
