FIA announce penalty for F1 star after calamitous incident at Azerbaijan GP
The FIA has issued a penalty to F1 star Alex Albon following his mistake at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, where he made a costly error while overtaking Franco Colapinto’s Alpine.
Albon received a 10-second time penalty after colliding with Colapinto, resulting in a spin for the Argentine driver and a setback for the Williams team.
The incident highlighted Albon’s misjudgment during the race and contrasted sharply with his teammate Carlos Sainz’s strong performance.
Despite the penalty, Albon’s finishing position outside the points means the impact on his race result will be minimal.
In contrast, Sainz is poised for a podium finish in Baku, marking a positive outcome for the Spanish driver after a strong qualifying performance.
