Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen were both unhurt after a scary accident at the start of the Austrian Grand Prix.
Exiting Turn 2 on the opening lap of the race, Raikkonen lost control of the rear of his Ferrari and swerved left towards the barrier on the outside of the track. With little run-off, Raikkonen collected Alonso at the same time and the two cars hit the barrier at high speed.
The Ferrari wedged underneath the McLaren, with Raikkonen taking his hands off the wheel as Alonso's car sat on top of the front of his SF15-T as the two slid down the grass alongside the track.
Alonso's car was also balanced on top of the crash barrier, leaving the Spaniard as a complete passenger as he waited for the two cars to stop before he was able to climb out. Alonso checked Raikkonen was OK before both left the scene of the incident, with Raikkonen saying afterwards he simply lost control of his car.
It was a miserable opening few laps of the race for McLaren, with Jenson Button retiring soon after with a technical issue.
