Sam Bird takes part in extrication practice in Formula E, leaves fans momentarily shocked
Image credit: McLaren FE Every motorsport involves risk, where a single crash can prove life-threatening. Formula E has maintained a strong safety record over its eleven seasons so far. However, as a precautionary measure, Formula E drivers undergo extrication practice once a year to ensure they are familiar with the emergency protocols in case of an incident. Recently, NEOM McLaren driver Sam Bird participated in one such practice session. A glimpse of the session was shared with fans on social media, offering insight into this important aspect of motorsport safety. Watch: Extrication practice in Formula E The video shows Sam Bird acting as an injured driver while the FIA Formula E safety team carefully lifts him out of the car and places him on a stretcher. The procedure is designed to avoid further injury, particularly to the neck or any broken bones. McLaren FE shared the video on Instagram with the caption: 'Earlier today, Sam completed his extrication practice with the @fiaformulae safety team. This is an exercise that happens at each race with a different team each time. This is for both the safety of the drivers and the extrication team should an incident occur where the driver would need assistance exiting the car. Each driver has to do this at least once a year to ensure their own safety. ' Some fans were momentarily alarmed upon seeing the video. One commented, 'Goodness grief — not me watching the first few seconds of this without context.' Another said, 'That scared me there for a second.' In general, fans appreciated the behind-the-scenes look at Formula E's extrication protocol. 'Never seen the neck wrap/support before, very neat,' wrote one. Another added, 'Much love to the safety teams, always prepared and always do an incredible job.' A third said, 'Awesome to see, safety above all.' One fan even joked, 'An FIA-mandated nap sounds quite nice.' Also Read: Who is Sam Bird's girlfriend Jess Impiazzi? Know more about the actor who is always cheering for the Formula E driver Sam Bird recently participated in the Jakarta E-Prix, though he was briefly stranded in Dubai on his way to the race. The 38-year-old finished seventh, earning six points. In the 2025 Formula E Driver Standings, Bird currently sits 16th with 33 points. He is set to compete in the final two race weekends — in Berlin and London — before the season concludes on July 27. Game On Season 1 continues with Mirabai Chanu's inspiring story.
