The opening GP3 race of the weekend at Sochi was cancelled, earlier today, as Toro Rosso Driver Carlos Sainz Jr suffered a heavy accident 35 minutes into the run. Carlos appeared to lose control braking going into turn 13, hit a wall and went straight into the Tecpro safety barriers. Although, Sainz gave the thumbs up as he was stretchered off which was a sigh of relief for the F1 World. Here’s how Twitter reacted to the crash! https://twitter.com/f1writers/status/652786276337360896 Carlos Sainz posted this picture on Twitter after he survived the monumental crash.

<h2 style="text-align: left">Russian Grand Prix 2021- Winners, Qualifying, Circuits, Track</h2>
The Russian Grand Prix is a relatively newer addition to the F1 calendar, with the Sochi Autodrom hosting the Annual event seven times since the first race in 2014. Since then, it has been a regular feature in the Formula One World Championship. The Mercedes team have thrived here, having taken every win since inception.

The Sochi Autodrom, despite being flanked by stunning architectural marvels, isn't a fan favorite circuit due to the nature of the track. Repetitive 90 degree turns make for a rather dull Grand Prix, which has been the case over the past few years.
