And a result to which the Dutchman was hospitalised. 

To bring everyone on the same page, He was able to walk to the ambulance following the crash and has been taken to a hospitalized for further tests. This resulted in Lewis Hamilton getting a 10-second penalty as well when the race saw the red flag being waved.
