The 36-year-old presenter was taken by air ambulance to Leeds General Infirmary's neurological unit.
A spokesman for the hospital said Mr Hammond was "stable".
Mr Hammond had been driving a dragster-style car capable of reaching 300mph at the former RAF airfield in Elvington, near York.

Lets hope he makes a full and speedy recovery for the sake of his wife and children. He has brought a lot to Top Gear and I am sure everyone connected with the programme will wish him well.
