Rob Collard

Ebay Motors BMW driver Rob Collard says he's feeling " a bit tender" after his horrific crash at Silverstone on Sunday, but despite the violent accident he wasn't seriously injured.

Collard initially complained of pins and needles after climbing out of the upturned car, and was airlifted to hospital in Coventry for precautionary checks, but was otherwise uninjured.
