Azerbaijan GP FP3: Bearman’s initial run into the wall caused him to miss the final session.
After Ollie Bearman’s Haas was damaged on his first run of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, final practice was stopped for a second time.
Following an impressive performance on Friday during his first complete F1 race weekend with the team he will race for in the upcoming season, the 19-year-old British driver overheated the brakes and crashed at Turn 1.
Bearman slammed the car side-on into the wall, damaging the front left, despite his best efforts to turn into the run-off area at the bend.”Ollie is fine, clearly very irritated; he just overcooked the braking,” Haas Team Principal Ayao Komatsu stated as soon as the event occurred.Q1 is mostly unchanged notwithstanding the risks associated with yellow flags. In my opinion, all he needs to do is regroup, return to his previous activities, and regain confidence before Q1.”
