VIDEO: Grosjean crashes into Silverstone pit-lane wall

Romain Grosjean made a conspicuous start to his British Grand Prix weekend, crashing into the pt-lane exit wall and spreading debris across Silverstone.

Haas' week before the British GP has been far from calm as their title sponsor Rich Energy has seemingly broken out into civil war, with CEO William Storey claiming that their sponsorship had been cancelled due to poor performance.

Grosjean certainly didn't do much to calm those suggestions as he began FP1 with a highly embarrassing incident, which also prompted a safety car.

The Frenchman was able to deliver 22 laps, but languished down in second last on the timesheets.
