P1racenews AI automatic summary:
It is the worst nightmare for any F1 team to have its drivers crash – but it does happen with Lewis Hamilton and George Russell the latest to enter F1’s ‘Hall of Shame’.
“Congratulations on earning a drive with a Formula 1 team and receiving a thick book of team operating procedures to read before driving the car. The first rule is to never crash into your teammate, which has been a major issue in the sport. It’s inevitable that two competitive drivers in the same equipment will occasionally collide, as seen with Lewis Hamilton and George Russell in Qatar. One of the most famous teammate collisions in F1 history occurred between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in Suzuka, where Prost closed the door on Senna, causing a crash. Another notable incident was in Turkey, when Sebastian Vettel collided with Mark Webber after overtaking him. In the wet 2011 race in Montreal, Hamilton collided with Webber multiple times. These are just a few examples of teammate collisions in Grand Prix racing.”
