An incredible accident has just occurred during the first free practice session for the Chinese Grand Prix. While he had been the victim of a problem with the braking system of his car, Sébastien Buemi (Toro Rosso) was able to take the track twenty minutes from the end of the session. As he approached a corner, the Swiss driver braked and his front wheels literally jumped! The car therefore went straight but, fortunately, did not hit any obstacle violently.
