"The HANS was amazing — I think it protected my neck."- Luke Browning
Browning alongside being Williams Racing’s reserve driver for the 2026 F1 season, will also compete in Super Formula for Kondo Racing. He finished fourth in Formula 2 last season.
In a test at the Japanese track, the British youngster lost control of his car in the famous 130R corner. The car flipped over the TecPro barrier and landed on its head on the grass behind.
Luckily, Browning could walk away from the incident without any injuries, and later reported no pain.
