Cape Town - As the Formula 1 circus heads to Barcelona for this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix, our Throwback Thursday clip looks at an incident that took place in 2015. 

Lotus driver Romain Grosjean misjudged his breaking point as headed in for a pitstop.

The F1 car knocked the poor lad holding the jack, launching him into the air. 

To make matters worse, the handle of the jack hit him in the nether regions. Ouch!

Check out the clip below of the incident:
