F1 | GP Azerbaijan, Mara Sangiorgio's point after FP1 in Baku [VIDEO]

Present inside the Baku Street Circuit, theater of the next Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Mara Sangiorgio took stock of the situation at the end of the first free practice in the Azerbaijani capital, underlining how a manhole ruined the plans of all the teams on this Friday morning.

During the morning, we recall, a manhole came out of the road, first causing a bad accident for George Russell (the Englishman passed over the cast iron rim, heavily damaging the bottom and the chassis of his FW42.ndr) and subsequently session termination,

In fact, before letting the cars take to the track again, the management preferred to inspect the entire track, so as to avoid new cases of this kind during the remainder of the weekend. This obviously penalized Ferrari in particular, given that Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc were supposed to test the new technical package brought by the Italian team to Azerbaijan.

It should be noted that despite the interruption and inspection of the track, free practice 2 in the afternoon will not be delayed. So meet up at 15.00 pm, on Sky Sport F1 HD, for the live broadcast of the second hour and a half of work on the Baku track.
