The incident happened at a Formula E round in London. The pilot of Jaguar Sam Baird felt unbearable pain after the collision, but did not call for doctors and finished the race

An X-ray after the race showed a dislocated fracture. The doctors were surprised that he could hold on for more than 40 minutes.

And this is how the race turned out for Bird:

Crash on the first lap - 22nd place - 14th place - 8th place. And all this without a drop of painkiller.

A real fighter.
