Nico Hulkenberg It has been the big surprise of the classification to the sprint of Austria. The German, with a Haas that is doing very well at Spielberg, has classified fourth making a great display on the track and being a protagonist both there and in the pit lane. But in the pits it was not, far from it, for something good
Because it could have ended badly, very badly, what happened when he changed tires in Q2. Because there, at that moment, he was very close to run over to one of the mechanics of his team.
His car even jumped. He almost took off from the runway due to the tremendous impact with, fortunately, a tire. With the tire that the Haas worker was holding.
However, some blow took the mechanic, because he limped up and with gestures of more than visible pain.
meanwhile, race direction wrote down the incident in the ‘pit lane’ with Hulkenberg. The reason, a possible ‘unsafe release’ at the time of resuming the march in qualifying for the sprint in Austria.
Little was missing to add the Hulkenberg incident to other incidents in the pit lane, with pilots taking mechanics ahead of their own teams either when entering or leaving the ‘pit lane’.
