Fuss about race ban
Formula 1 bully: “I just don’t understand it!”
That's bitter! Kevin Magnussen will have to watch the Formula 1 race in Baku in two weeks' time. "I just don't understand it," says the Haas driver, unable to comprehend his race ban.
Magnussen finished the Grand Prix in Monza on Sunday in tenth place. However, the Dane could not really be happy about the one championship point. After a collision with Alpine driver Pierre Gasly, the 31-year-old not only received a time penalty, but also two penalty points. And that has bitter consequences ...
... because Magnussen is now not allowed to take part in the race in Baku in two weeks' time. This is because any driver who collects twelve penalty points within twelve months is automatically banned from the next race.
"I don't understand it at all," he grumbled. "Gasly and I drove hard into turn 4. Before that, we had a slight contact, we both missed the turn, came back onto the track, no damage to either car, no impact on the race for either of us."
Gasly: "That would be unfair"
He received support from his rival Gasly, of all people. When he found out that Magnussen was banned from Baku, he said: "I hope they can reverse it somehow, because that would definitely be unfair."
