F1 Pundit Slams Colapinto Crash, Rejects Norris Ban Call

Former McLaren mechanic and Formula 1 pundit Marc Priestley has branded Franco Colapinto's Turn 1 collision at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix "outrageous", but dismissed Lando Norris's demand for the Alpine driver to face a race ban.

Colapinto went for a move down the inside into Turn 1 during a safety car restart in Baku, but locked up and collided with his Alpine team-mate Pierre Gasly. Priestley acknowledged the severity of the incident but stopped short of backing Norris's call for a race penalty. ipl-today.in
