📣Team Statement 📣
Following her heavy crash in yesterday's qualifying, we have mutually agreed to rule Hannah out of the weekend overall. She's still in hospital and is doing fine but won't be competing in the sprint or feature race. It's a shame to both parties that she can't drive this weekend at Spa but in the interest of both parties.
Hannah says: "I'm devastated to not be driving at an iconic track like Spa this weekend but my health comes first. I'm doing fine in the hospital and the doctors are taking all the precautions to make sure I can race in Hungary before the break when I'll rest more ready for the second half. Thank you for all the well wishes and I'll hopefully be back out racing soon."
Yannick Hubert commented: "First of all, we're so thankful Hannah's alive and okay. It was definitely a scary crash and so thankful she made it out and that Arthur as well as Prema's Ollie Bearman went to the hospitals with her. Now, our main priority it ensuring she's healthy before we can get her back on track. Unfortunately we have no-one to step in for Hannah so the rest of the weekend is being completed by Arthur alone. We'll provide an update on Hannah as soon as we can."

prema_team so glad hannah's okay. a really scary crash that we don't want to see happen to anyone in any form of motorsport. we may be competitors on track but we're all friends off it and we ensure everyone is okay. Ollie did the right thing going with her, especially since both of them and Arthur are all close
