He was in the car that hit the barrier first I would assume. The impact looked like it was into the side of his car.
Yes. That was him in pink car.
The Arden (Pink car) was Hubert's car, after his collision with the barrier he spun into the road and was effectively t-boned by Correa (who suffered two broken legs in the accident also) and his car split in two.
Thanks, all. Terrible. 
An official statement from Correa’s media team is as follows:
Today, American Juan Manuel Correa was involved in a scary incident at the Belgium Grand Prix at the Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium. A victim of an accident that happened in front of him, Correa had no place to go and made contact with a fellow competitor’s stopped FIA Formula 2 car. Suffering fractures to both of his legs and a minor spinal injury, Correa underwent surgery and is resting in Intensive Care.
At the current moment, Juan Manuel Correa’s condition is stable. He was taken by helicopter to a hospital where he underwent surgery. Juan Manuel remained conscious the entire time until his admission to the operating room.
While you keep Juan Manuel in your thoughts and prayers, please also pray for the well being of Anthoine Hubert’s friends and family. In motorsports, we are a family, and we lost one of our family members today.
More updates on Juan Manuel’s condition will be made public when available.

Absolutely nothing he could have done about it but feck me how must he be feeling this morning.
Glad to see Sky no pushing anybody to talk to them.
Grid is rightly very subdued by the look of it.

Very. Christian Horner seemed to struggle finding the words when they spoke to him.
Been a minute silence already and gonna be another one imminently.
Also we'll all be standing and applauding throughout lap 19 of the race.
Very respectful from the whole of the track, could not hear a single noise.
Going to be a difficult race to watch and drive in today.

Back to racing.
Dont see anything today, other than Seb and Leclerc battling for 1 and 2.
With Lewis , Bottas and Max fighting for 3rd.

Can't be easy for the drivers out there today. Would be nice to see Leclerc get his first win given the circumstamces, expect Vettel will breeze past on the Kemmel straight on lap one and control the race from there though.
Ferrari have a history of fecking things up.
Today is cooler than FP and qualifying, may help Lewis and Bottas, looks like a one stop race.
40% chance of rain , now that would, throw a spanner in the works.
Verstappen out!
Gonna be a lot of upset Dutch fans.
Lewis had no chance Seb just too fast.
OH dear what a shame , Max is out already.
OH dear what a shame , Max is out already.
Noooo... I just transfer Max in.
Looked like Max is totally at fault, why was he moaning.
Max with his usual poor start as always.
Dunno, think Kimi has to take a share of the blame.
watched it a few times , now and not sure, maybe 60/40 or 55/45 Max
Sainz of track now, SC is staying out.
I'd easily give Max 90. They weren't equally side to side, he's all but lunging in. Kimi is at fault for not expecting stupidity behind him.
I'd have it as 50-50, was overly aggressive from Max but Kimi left no room. Racing incident IMO.
No investigation for Max and Kimi , so maybe they think racing incident.
I think that's fair- no malice in it, just they bunched up on a tight corner for me.
after watching it a few time , I would agree.
barring a feck up, this is a Ferrari 1 and 2
so 50/50 chance they mess it up
Vettel will get Leclerc here... Those two taking each other out is Merc's only hope now.
Feck up probably more likely.
Love the tribute with the applause.
Ferrari wants Vettel to win this clearly. Feck them
Don't think so, Vettel will be struggling badly by the end.
Lewis is pitting now, had no choice but to pit.
not sure they do , Leclerc will have much younger boots on, should be his race for the taking.
