Jos Verstappen shared details about the accident in the rally.

      The day before, Jos Verstappen, the father of Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen, participated in the fourth stage of the Belgian rally championship and was involved in a serious accident, crashing a Skoda Fabia RS Rally2. The driver and his co-driver Jasper Vermuelen were unharmed, and now Jos has commented on the incident and provided details.

      "It was a right turn that I had to take in fourth gear," Verstappen Sr. told the press service of the Belgian rally championship. "It was quite dusty there, and there was gravel on the surface.

      I think I entered the turn too quickly, and the car lost traction on the exit. After that, we hit a pole, the car spun sharply, and we rolled onto the roof.

      The most important thing is that Jasper and I safely got out of the car. The impact was strong, but modern cars are very safe, and we were once again convinced of that. I'm glad we weren't hurt."
