Richard Hammond's daughter in Formula E crash

time:2026-02-15Popularity:Author:

Izzy Hammond - daughter of former Top Gear and Grand Tour presenter Richard - escaped unhurt as she crashed during a Formula E influencer event in Saudi Arabia.

Competing in the Duals stage of the sport's Evo Sessions, in which content creators go head-to-head for the fastest lap on behalf of two teams, Hammond smashed into a barrier at turn 13 of the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.

Speaking to her team via her radio, the 25-year-old said: "I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine."

Hammond was competing as part of Team Senor Frogs alongside influencers including Joshua Larkin (also known as TheBurntChip), William Lenney (WillNe), Arthur Frederick (ArthurTV) and Ethan Payne (Behzinga).

Her father was almost killed in September 2006 when a 300mph (480km/h) jet-powered dragster he was driving veered off the track at Elvington airfield, near York.

The accident happened as he was attempting a land speed record while being filmed.
