Chaz Mostert Involved in Major Auto Crash
Australian Supercars star Chaz Mostert was involved in a significant auto crash during a practice session at Sydney Motorsport Park on Monday. The crash occurred as Mostert was preparing for the upcoming round of the Supercars Championship.
Eyewitnesses reported that Mostert’s car lost control coming out of Turn 3, colliding heavily with the barriers. Emergency services were quickly on the scene, and Mostert was extricated from the vehicle and transported to a nearby hospital for evaluation.
Team officials have confirmed that Mostert is in stable condition, but he sustained multiple injuries that will likely sideline him for the next few races. The extent of his injuries is still being assessed, and further updates are expected in the coming days.
“Chaz is a fighter, and we’re all hoping for a speedy recovery,” said team principal Bruce Stewart. “The safety measures in place did their job, and we’re grateful he’s in stable condition. Our primary concern now is his health and well-being.”
Mostert, a former Bathurst 1000 winner, is currently fourth in the Supercars Championship standings. His absence will be a significant blow to his team’s championship aspirations, and plans for a replacement driver are already underway.
Fans and fellow drivers have taken to social media to express their support and well wishes for Mostert’s recovery. The incident has also prompted discussions on enhancing safety measures at the circuit.
Further updates on Mostert’s condition and the impact on his racing season will be provided as more information becomes available.
