Richard Hammond critical

I have quite a soft spot for the hamster - hope he'll be ok. Elvington airfield is quite near my house - i often see lots of amazing cars going in there as it's the longest airstrip in europe so is used for a lot of testing. Get well soon Richard!

Pics of the accident don't look too bad but the rapidly changing g-forces he would of experienced would of been massive.

 

Going by the doctors statement it's bad.

 

"..we are reasonably optimistic that he will make a good recovery."

 

Hope he makes a rapid recovery beyond the docs expectations. Someone has to look after TG Dog.

I was also shocked when i heard this yesterday, on the adverts in between "Wire in the Blood".

 

Anyways thout id let you know, someone on Pistonheads.com has set up a JustGiving account to collect donations to go to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Chairty, which is the crew that airlifted Hammond to the hospital.

 

Check it out.

Anyone who paints flames on a Porsche, trashes a Suzuki Carry van and drives a fire extinguisher powered wheelchair (Brainiac) is a friend of mine. Best wishes to Hamster! I am sure given the choice he would have preferred to be injured trying to break a speed record than sliding at a diesel pump or crashing a people carrier!
