Mexico’s motorsport federation has placed the blame firmly on Liam Lawson for a scary near-miss with marshals during Sunday’s F1 Mexico City GP.
Mexico’s motorsport federation, OMDAI Sport Mexico, blamed Liam Lawson for a near-miss with marshals during the Formula 1 Mexico City Grand Prix. The incident occurred on Lap 3 at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez after Lawson had contact with Carlos Sainz. Lawson encountered marshals removing debris between Turns 1 and 2 and had to take evasive action. OMDAI stated Lawson should have slowed down and been prepared to stop due to double yellow flags in the area. The investigation is ongoing, but both parties agree the incident was a serious safety breach. The FIA confirmed marshals were supposed to clear debris after all cars passed but had to withdraw when Lawson entered the pits.
