Izzy Hammond Walks Away From 24G Formula E Crash at Jeddah Evo Session

She later attributed the hit to cold tyres, reporting a concussion with neck pain.

Overview

  • The 25-year-old influencer and journalist struck the Turn 13 concrete barrier just over a minute into a lap during Formula E's Evo Sessions in Jeddah on February 15.
  • Hammond exited the wrecked GEN3 Evo car, was assessed trackside, and told her team over radio, “I’m fine,” before posting health updates on Instagram.
  • She said the impact measured about 24G, apologized to her Lola team, and described plans to rest after the concussion.
  • The collision tore off a wheel, destroyed the front wing, scattered debris across the circuit, and triggered a safety-car period with medical personnel attending.
  • Coverage relayed mixed early explanations, including a reported brake issue, while commentator David Coulthard noted she “caught the back end,” and no official investigation findings have been released.
