The passing of Anthoine Hubert at the 2019 Belgian Grand Prix rocked the motorsport world, triggering a sweeping FIA probe to determine what caused his fatal accident. This Fan Arch piece attempts to go into more detail about what happened, the possible causes, and the aftermath of the devastating crash.

Background

The promising young French racer Anthoine Hubert was killed in a multiple-vehicle crash during a Formula 2 race at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit on August 31, 2019. Hubert was known for his talent and deep passion for racing, which made his death all the more heartbreaking.

Description Crash incident process

Giuliano Alesi reversed out of Turn 3 on entry in his MP Motorsport, hit the barriers on the outside, came back to a halt, and stopped at Fenestraz. The incident caused a high-speed T-bone-style impact between Hubert and Juan Manuel Correa's cars. The report released detailed the incidents, saying that there was not one cause or driver of the fatal crash.

Possible Causes and Contributing Factors

The investigation identified several factors that combined to create a severity, including Alesi losing control of his car, other drivers' responses to the debris, and Hubert and Correa's high-speed impact. It added that the drivers and race officials reacted appropriately to the incident, with speedy reactions from marshals as well.

Safety Improvements and Aftermath

After the fatal crash, they incorporated lessons from that accident into their ongoing efforts to advance motorsport safety. The first incident triggered an immediate response from medical teams, with the FIA conducting a thorough analysis of the situation. The results from this investigation are significant as they will be a guide for future safety provisions in motorsport designed to avoid similarly tragic events.

Reactions from the Motorsports World

The loss of Anthoine Hubert caused the motorsports world to reflect deeply on what we should accept in racing. The need for relentless safety measures was again accentuated, and its driver casualty was permanently etched.
