Chilton's accident

Looks very much like a suspension failure.

On BBC sport

Lewis Hamilton, who swung by the McLaren motorhome after testing on day one for a chat with Sergio Perez, is yet to put a time on the board in his Mercedes
Stuart Maginnis, via text: "After all the hype and anticipation, I think Lewis Hamilton will struggle to come to terms with what will be a second rate outfit compared to McLaren. Too much opportunity for reliability and performance issues. Sergio Perez will also struggle with expectations and pressure. Ultimately, Hamilton back to McLaren next year, Perez, possibly Mercedes swap."

He's not from BBC. He's just a normal guy sent this message from his phone and BBC published it.
