One F1 driver had $0 crash damage in 2024 - but there are question marks
Remarkable cost-saving record is being doubted

A stunning record achieved by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly is being questioned.
The Alpine driver was credited as becoming the first-ever F1 driver to record $0 cra﷽sh damage over a w🍎hole season.
Gasly proudly mentioned that 🧸he had cost his team absolutely nothing in damage costs after the season-ending F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
“There were three targets,” he expl༒ained. “Sixth in the constructors’, 10th in the drivers’, and keep my nose clean so we’re still on $0 damage.
“We completed all the targets.”
The social media post below shows the estimated cost of damage from each driver, 𒊎three races before the end of the season. Gasly insists he retained his $0.

Doubt about Pierre Gasly $0 damage
However, eagle-eyed Formula 1 fans have poiꦿnted to a series of incidents involving Gasly over the season.
Gasly and his Alpine teammate💧 Esteban Ocon made contact at the F1 Ja🃏panese Grand Prix.
“He touched me and took the whole left side o꧒f my floor off the car,” Gasly s༺aid at the time.
Gasly was also left fuming when Ocon ended up on top of him, on the 🌌first lap of the F1 Monaco Grand 𝕴Prix.
“I’m just glad we managed to get out of it with only some front wing damage and a couple of things,” Gasly said after the ra🍃ce.
“Lu💧ckily with the red flag we managed to repair it.”
Gasly also had to retire from the F1 Las Vegas GP when hisꦕ engine broke.
He retired from three races in total, a꧑ll due to mechanical problems.
So why was Gasly’s crash damage $0?
After those three incide🦩nts, fans were left questioning how Gasly’s $0 crash damage was calculated.
He admitte൲d damage after at least one of those incidents, in Monaco. And coꦛnceded that his floor was impacted in Japan.
The discrepancy might lie in w🦄hat crash damage is attributed to a driver.
For example, the three incidents listed were ꦆeither racing incidents or blamed on a rival driver. So, they weren’t Gasly’s fault.
It could be that this detail means ⛎any damage to his Alpine was not listed as his responsibility.
Mechanical faults, for example, su൲rely will have cost money to repair. But they weren’t caused by Gasly.
Pierre Gasly shines in 2024
The French driver impressed this season regardless of the stat which hꦺas caused debate.
He secured nine points finishes and even one unexpected podium in 📖Brazil, on Alpine’s finest day.
Gasly beat teammate Ocon b🍸y 18 points to finish 10th in the drivers’ standings, helping Alpine to sixth in the constructors’.
Next y🔯ear Ocon will move to Haas, and Gasly will be paired at Alpine with rookie Jack Doohan.
Doohan got behind the wheel ofꦛ his 2025 team♏’s car at the postseason test.
