Has Schumacher suffered any injuries?

The race itself was red flagged as a result of the crash however Haas later revealed later on that Schumacher was conscious and had been taken to hospital for further medical tests. They tweeted: "Mick is conscious, out of the car and currently on his way to the medical centre. "Mick is physically in a good condition but will be flown by helicopter to hospital for further precautionary check-ups." https://twitter.com/HaasF1Team/status/1507786070196379654 Schumacher's crash comes after a major shock in the first stage of qualifying as seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton suffered an embarrassing performance on the circuit to be knocked out at the first stage. After mistakes on turn one, two and four, Hamilton didn't recover to make it to the second stage and will start right at the back of the grid in 16th place. His Mercedes teammate George Russell meanwhile secured a fourth-place finish in Q1 while reigning world champion Max Verstappen battled it out for pole position, which was secured by his Red Bull counterpart, Sergio Perez.
