🗣 'Apparently, there was not enough room for both of us' 😳 Yuki Tsunoda touched AlphaTauri F1 team-mate Nyck de Vries, which caused wing damage that led to his crash in the Baku sprint – here's how it happened 👇
Tsunoda started two places ahead de Vries but on the first lap the Dutchman got past him as the pair exited Turn 2.
While de Vries continued unscathed Tsunoda lost the left side part of the wing and immediately told the team that he had to pit.famously once crashed his Haas under the safety car – he understeered wide and clipped the wall with the right-hand side of the car. The right rear wheel was shattered, and the tyre subsequently came off.
The Faenza outfit was subsequently fined €5000 for releasing Tsunoda’s car in an unsafe condition, with the FIA admonishing the team for not doing more to check for suspension damage.“It wasn't right, but we just fitted a tyre and [looked to] see if there's damage,” he said. “It was invisible, they looked from outside, and they didn't see any damage, so maybe that's why they sent me out. Obviously, there was damage.
