Richard Hammond praises medics

Richard Hammond has praised medics after his horrific crash in Switzerland. Hammond was filming for the latest series of The Grand Tour when the Rimac Concept One electric supercar he was driving crashed off the Hemburg Hill Climb course on Saturday.

The former Top Gear presenter managed to climb out of the wreck before it burst into flames, and was then flown by air ambulance to a hospital in St Gallen.

Speaking from his hospital bed, Hammond said: “Yes, it’s true, I’ve binned it, again. The net result being, I’m here in a hospital in Switzerland.”
