168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll has labelled his collision with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo in the F1 Chinese🅘 Grand Prix as a “stupid incident” and “very unlucky”.
Stroll rear-ended Ricciardo as th𝕴e field bunched up at the hairpin just bef𝄹ore a Safety Car restart, a collision which sent the RB driver airborne.
The contact caused significant damage to Ricciardo’s 🍰car and ultimately forced t♔he Australian to retire.
Stroll co🍌ntinue🐽d and finished 15th but was handed a 10-second time penalty for causing the collision.
While a furi𝄹ous Ricciardo☂ was absolutely convinced Stroll was at fault, the Canadian blamed a “really odd concertina effect”.
“Someone braked at the front of the pack, I don’t know who. And then everyone stops. The car in front of me just stopped from like 60 to zero, so a really stupid incident.꧑ It was one of those,” Stroll explained.
“I think [the penalty] is just because of the fact that I hit the guy. But someone hit the brakes and cau🌱sed the concertina. I don’t know who.
"I got a penalty because of the end result that I hit Ricciardo, but it’s not like everything was normal and I just slammed into the back of him. And there was a real🐷ly odd concertina effect that I would have liked to see the stewards take into consideration maybe a little bit more.
“We’re going 60 and then started t𝐆o slow a little bit for it. And 𒆙then zero all of a sudden. It’s just a little bit wrong place too, I was in his gearbox kind of thing and ready for the restart, and just very unlucky. We were having a good race so then so it’s a shame.
“If someone didn’t hit the brakes in fron🏅t, there wouldn’t have been any concertina effect, there would🎶n’t have been any issues. I really think it was one of those stupid incidents.”
Stroll was heard calling Ricciardo an “idiot” over team rad⛎io but insisted he wasn’t accusing ☂his rival of wrongdoing.
“No, I don't think it's him,”💯 Stroll said. “Everyone just slammed on the brakes, and he was the guy in front of me.
“I donꦫ't think he slammed on the brakes [more than others], it༺ was, like I said, the concertina effect.”
