VIDEO – Australian GP – The incomprehensible crash between Stroll and Latifi during qualifying

Incomprehensible. And unworthy of Formula 1. This Saturday, a settlement was held on the Albert Park circuit in Melbourne. As Q1 neared the end, Lance Stroll (Aston Martin) and Nicholas Latifi (Williams) crashed after a ridiculous hitch causing a red flag.

While Latifi had logically let Stroll pass, the latter finally slowed down in a turn, causing his compatriot to overtake again. Obviously, he didn’t enjoy the maneuver, giving a frankly suspicious steering wheel shot on Latifi’s Williams. She then turned on herself before ending up on the sidewalk, damaged.

“From my point of view, it is very clear what happenedLatifi told Canal +. I reviewed the incident on video and I can confirm that it was not my fault. There was a space inside, I was on my tire preparation when he was not in the attacking position, he was back and he pointed at me. That’s all I can say. It’s really weird“.

“He got me back insideStroll tried to listen to the radio. Not sure if the commissioners would hear him.
