Haven’t seen anything yet about Max’s car…. Assuming no new PU parts needed

Per a Dutch journalist:

At Red Bull they have of course checked the entire gearbox from head to toe, hence no change. But of course there is always a risk. When the car 'runs' on its way to the grid, you will actually see whether there are no problems.

We saw that earlier this year with Leclerc in Monaco.

Dude was driving out of his mind. That lockup was probably in part to those tires being melted.
Which would be the 2nd time this year the tires have let him down in a big way (including Baku).

Looks like they may be stopping the F2 race.

Or not. Tons of confusion.

Why?

“Track repairs”
The barrier was broken due to a Porsche race earlier today

Car in the third grid spot (I think) stalled on the start and got hit in the back. Sky hasn't shown the replay yet and waiting update on the drivers involved. Race is red flagged but may resume in like 10 mins.

I saw another tweet from someone who is there that said the bank of lights that run along the wall shared with the pit changed to yellow but there aren’t any lights on the wall shared with the grandstands. No yellow flags were waved. So, the driver that hit the stalled car had no visual indicators in his line of sight (obviously don’t know about the steering wheel).

F2 about to restart but will be more like a sprint. 20 mins plus 1 lap.
There will also be a mandatory pit stop and half pts will be awarded.

The driver that was hit went to the hospital via ambulance and gave a thumbs up to the crowd.
The driver that hit him (Enzo F) went to the hospital via helicopter and was seen moving his arms.

Yea, they have had a few nice overtakes, but there was just another wreck. They are calling the race now.
The F1 race may be a shitshow. The track is just so narrow and the wall is right there.

Called it Friday morning, red flags will be out….
Thinking we may see something nasty in the first turn when Max tries to get his position.

That was Theo Pourchaire. He is seen as one of the drivers that will eventually make the jump to F1 and will have a bright future.

Let's hope the gearbox isn't a deciding factor in the title race. A DNF would be so anticlimactic.

Really going to suck if Ham or Max crash out and that ends the championship.
