Ollie Bearman is under investigation for an unusual crash approaching the pitlane during a red flag period at the end of final practice at the British GP
Ollie Bearman is being investigated for a crash during the red flag period at British Grand Prix practice. The Haas F1 driver locked his rear wheels and hit the barriers at the pit entry, damaging his car. The incident occurred after a spin and suspension failure for another driver. Bearman admitted his brakes were cold and expressed frustration over the radio. He faces a potential 10-place grid penalty if found guilty of the red flag infringement. Despite this setback, Bearman showed promising pace at the session, just six tenths off the lead midfield car. The stewards are scheduled to review the case at 1.15pm local time. Bearman’s teammate, Esteban Ocon, was 13th-fastest in the same session.
