The chassis is still in one piece, the halo is there and apart from the damage and burn it is still as it should be. "The survival cell is there for you in case of a huge impact. I believe that helped me at least to get a vision of where I had to go and where the exit was. Dr Ian Roberts, Alan from the medical car and one fireman were trying to open a gap in the fire to help me get out. "It was 120 kilos of fuel plus the battery - both were on fire. My shoe stayed in the chassis but my foot came loose so I was free to exit the car. I realised my left foot was stuck into the chassis and I pulled as hard as I could on my left leg. "I had to break the headrest, punching it with my helmet and then I eventually managed to get my helmet through and stand up in the seat. They were just spectators waiting to hear something. They will remember that moment their entire life. "My wife was actually watching that race with my dad and my kids. "It was only the next day when I asked someone to show me what it looked like that I realised," Grosjean said in an interview with the organisers of the exhibition. Grosjean's injuries were limited to burns to his hands, largely thanks his overalls, fireproof underwear and his helmet. The French driver spent 28 seconds in the inferno before he worked his way free from car, which had split the crash barrier and become wedged between two strips of metal. Grosjean survived the terrifying accident, which saw his Haas crash into an unprotected barrier at 120mph, split in two and burst into flames. The charred remains of the Formula One car Romain Grosjean crashed at the 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix will go on display at a new exhibition in Madrid next month.
