“When something like that happens you think it’s the fault of the guys at the front because they’re the ones controlling the pace, but having watched the video back I don’t think the leaders did anything wrong. Safety car restart brought the second pile-up of the race “When you’re in this position you can only see the few cars in front of you, you can’t see the leaders … Really I think everyone who was involved in the incident itself, we were all just passengers, there was nothing more that we could have done. Latifi also took a hit and cars were left scattered across the pit straight.

The Alfa Romeo struck the rear of the Haas hard, and Carlos Sainz was next on the scene at full throttle, wedging underneath Giovinazzi briefly.
F1 2020 RACE RESULTS DRIVERS
Further back in the pack, something triggered movement from other drivers and Nicholas Latifi accelerated behind Kevin Magnussen, darting to the left when he realised there had yet to be a restart.īut Latifi – though not appearing to be the initial trigger – had then led to others behind him putting their foot to the floor, and when the Williams moved around the slow Magnussen, Antonio Giovinazzi had nowhere to go. The Safety Car lights went off late and Bottas opted to use as much of the pit straight as possible before accelerating away in order to reduce the tow effect. So it wasn’t until the end of lap six that racing resumed, and for four drivers they didn’t even make it across the start line. The gravel is a redeeming characteristic of Mugello, but less redeeming is the time it takes to recover cars given the tight access caused by the undulations of the track. Grosjean even ended up in the barrier but somehow continued with a damaged car. Gasly was briefly airborne as the trio took Verstappen with them, only Räikkönen making the corner minus his front wing while the Red Bull and AlphaTauri retired in the gravel. Verstappen climbs out of his beached Red Bull Gasly moved right in response to Räikkönen but touched Grosjean, nudging him back to Raikkonen in a sandwich. Räikkönen was on the right and Pierre Gasly in the middle, with Romain Grosjean on what was about to become the outside of Turn 2. Support races in F2 and F3 this weekend showed the potential for incidents when fighting through the first sector and three into one didn’t go as Kimi Räikkönen caught a snap of oversteer climbing out of the first corner. Max Verstappen suffered a power unit issue that saw him go from side-by-side with the championship leader around 100 meters after the line to 14th at Turn 1, and by Turn 2 he was in the gravel. His launch from pole was poor and Valtteri Bottas easily led, but Hamilton got a lucky break. Lewis Hamilton made one mistake all afternoon out on track, and it was at the first start of the race. But this was an even more chaotic race, that for the first hour didn’t see much in the way of racing at all.
