Williams Formula 1 driver Alex Albon has revealed that he attempted to get out of the crash with Daniel Ricciardo
Alex Albon started the race on the Soft compound and managed to take advantage of Ricciardo’s compromised position to try to overtake him. However, Ricciardo, distracted by battling with Stroll, didn’t see Albon and squeezed him onto the grass, resulting in a collision sending both drivers out of the race and the stewards stopping the race. Albon explained he was lining up for an overtake later on and tried to avoid the crash when he realized Ricciardo hadn’t seen him. Despite being unhurt, Albon was concerned about the car’s damage due to the shortage of spare parts at Williams. Albon acknowledged that the team’s repair work from multiple crashes is hindering their ability to focus on development and upgrades, which will have long-term consequences.
