F1 star Brendon Hartley suffered a terrifying 200mph smash during third practice at Silverstone.


As soon as the Toro Rosso driver touched the brakes, his front left suspension exploded - causing him to lose control of his car and skid into the barriers.

Brendon Hartley spiralled out of control during practice at Silverstone

The New Zealander was walking after the crash before his car was lifted off the circuit by a crane.


The 28-year-old has been given the all clear since the accident after being checked out by medics.



The session was red flagged, before restarting once the debris was cleared.


Four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel spoke to his Ferrari team on the radio as he was coming into the pits to ask for confirmation his counterpart was OK.


Hartley will be able to race in the Grand Prix, but is expected to start from the pit-lane as there will be a race for the engineers to get his car ready for Sunday.

The crash comes after Romain Grosjean collided with the wall on Thursday in free practice.



The Frenchman, who picked up his first points of the season in Austria last weekend, forgot to deactivate his DRS heading into the first corner, sending his Haas car flying off the track.


His fourth place in Spielberg a week ago is now a distant memory after images showed his car in a wrecked state following his terrifying 190mph crash.


Grosjean's chassis was said to be "destroyed" after he piled into the barriers.

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it.

Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...
