Brendon Hartley was involved in numerous crashes during the 2018 Formula One season, and this particular high-speed crash during FP3 at the Silverstone Circuit was his biggest of the season.

A left-front suspension failure on the Toro Rosso machine, while the New Zealander was speeding on the Wellington Straight, forced him to crash into the barriers at a very high speed, which also resulted in him not participating the qualifying session.

Brendon Hartley escaped unhurt while Toro Rosso changed the entire suspension setup of his teammate Pierre Gasly's machine before the start of the qualifying session.

Unfortunately, the German driver was also present in the inverted car when the rear of his Renault caught fire for a short duration of time.

Nico Hulkenberg escaped the incident unhurt.
