Azerbaijan f1 grand prix

Azerbaijan F1 Grand Prix: Sergio Perez and Carlos Sainz suffered heartbreak after a close race for the final podium position in the penultimate lap at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix as both drivers ended up crashing into the barrier. Red Bull team principal Christian Horner believes the incident cost Perez a deserved spot on the podium which would have been his first since the Chinese Grand Prix in April.

“He deserved more than that. I just watched the replay, and Carlos drifted across the circuit. He (Checo) deserved a podium. It destroyed his race and a lot of damage. It has cost us a lot of points in the Constructors,” said Horner to Sky Sports F1.
