Antonelli's first push lap: top of the charts

Second push lap: loses grip and spins into the barriers, crashing Russell's car and bringing the red flag

Well, that was a quick FP outing...

Oh and apparently Mercedes were doing a split-setup test with Russell's car having the new floor. Oof

Poor George. Must be hard to stand there and watch your car and new upgrade go into the wall

Unfortunate that for Antonelli. Had good pace but the over exuberance of youth coming through.

Tbf when Max Verstappen is not able to keep his car properly on track no one can expect that from Antonelli. Also, I'm not certain where Mayländer crashed the safety car, but wasn't that the same spot? (Edit: No, I don't think it was.)

The track definitely has low grip because of the resurfacing, it for sure did not help Antonelli and Maylander.

Yes but I imagine the team would have told Antonelli not to do 110% laps for his first few push laps. Or they didnt, in that case its their own fault.

Edit: ok Toto just said on air that he told Antonelli "drive like you want, no one cares about a FP".. while Shovlin said that Antonelli drove in a way that the car simply isnt able to lol

[–] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

So now the big question will be if they rushed him into the seat. Even Toto is thinking this, but won't admit it. This is where they miss Lauda.

Big fanfare for Antonelli, & then managed a few laps, before binning it...🤷🏻‍♂️
