Catalunya circuit Twitter feed saying Alonso crashed on Turn 4 and had to have an ambulance called on track. He's OK and conscious though apparently, which is excellent news. Even the likes of Hamilton I wouldn't wish that on.

Alonso airlifted to hospital, apparently the car hit a wall coming out of Turn 3. He is awake though, hopefully this is just erring on the side of caution after Bianchi last season.
