00:00You see there's a yellow flag. It's Hulkenberg. Oh dear. And as you can see, there's only half a front wing
00:05This is the sort of thing Jack you need to avoid next year
00:09Try and complete the lap with the front wing intact
00:12Nico Hulkenberg as has done
00:15217 races so far in his career and I'm sure he's had a couple of moments like this as well
00:19But these conditions playing havoc, but look at that
00:22He's very neatly collected the second half of that front wing so he can bring it back to the garage
00:27If you click that inside curve, it can spin the car around but I think I think it was
00:33Yes, here we go on the way into always. Oh, you know the brakes again it is
00:38That is not driver error
00:40He's you might have missed some of that. So yeah yesterday. Yeah, so basically plagued by braking issues
00:46It's against him yesterday
00:51Weird
00:52Something weird is going on there and whether it's in the the software or not
00:57I mean you you'd know these systems even better than I do Jack, but
01:01how
01:02How would that be would it be software or hardware from your experience?
01:06I don't know like it obviously potentially could be software
01:08There's so much going on, but it also could be hardware and how the car sitting, you know
01:12It's it's quite rare, I'm sure it's not the case, but even if you know, all four corners aren't sitting correctly
01:17And here's his teammate Magnuson
01:20opposite wheel
01:22Looked a bit more normal
01:23I'd say for me just we've seen many cars go wide in turn one and the tailwind there and yeah
01:29It's more normal see a lock and then an unlock the driver is in control of what they're doing with the brake pedal
01:34But Logan sergeant who crashed here in qualifying last year has had a mighty off
01:40I'm afraid at turn four and that is definitely a red flag up
01:44It comes on your screens now and he's completely lost it at a part of the track ants and Jack
01:50You know, you're getting your foot down. You're trying to find the right flow
01:53There's a fire as well as you can see that is going to need some extinguishers on it pretty soon
01:59I'm okay says Logan sergeant and that's good to hear but he's he needs to get out of that car
02:04If he hasn't already done so I think he he has managed to to clamber
02:10Free from that stricken Williams
02:12But that is a big big crash and the last thing you would want as a driver and the team
02:18On a Saturday morning practice session. It's a very strange play
02:21It's good to see these out the cars that car so they've got to get the fire extinguisher map rapid as soon as possible
02:29The other last thing you want to end up having is some kind of a battery fire on these cars
02:32It's incredibly hard to put out
02:35It hasn't a guess that Logan sergeant is not going to be taking part in qualifying. Yeah, I seriously doubt that
02:41Let's have a look at the replay now
02:43Going around turn three Hugenholtz
02:47Right on the grass
02:53It's just eager to get his foot down on the exit of turn three
02:56So yeah, it happened a lot earlier actually in that that run up towards turn seven than I thought so that's what it takes
03:01You put your wheel on the grass and you lose an awful lot of grip
03:05Into the Armco barrier there isn't there?
03:07It's about 110 miles an hour in the in the wet something like that. Maybe a little bit less
03:14but
03:16such are these fine margins between a perfect exit and
03:20A trip into the barriers and with a tire flying off as well. You can see the photographers
03:27Taking a few paces back and Oscar piastri
03:31Avoiding running over any of the the debris
03:36Wow, that's what you want to say and the mechanics know instantly don't they they know you can see the pain on all of their
03:42Expressions they know how much hard work that's gonna be so he gets on the curb
03:46That's okay
03:46But you he then continues on to the grass still try and put his foot down and in this wet condition
03:53You really have to admit defeat sometimes and live to fight another day with breezing off the throttle. Okay. Are you okay?
04:00I'm good. Okay, you okay? That's what matters guys on fire make guys on fire
04:05So you should jump out jump out guys on fire the rear of the car
04:09There is no way he can do qualifying because it won't get scrutinized until tomorrow. Hey, we go
04:15we have a green light Kevin Magnuson swiftly away as is Nico Hulkenberg and
04:21the
04:23Sauber of Joe Guan you now whether they're all gonna get out and
04:28Have anything like a meaningful lap
04:30We shall see whether they all want to come out
04:33We shall see because some might decide it just isn't worth it. I mean the two Haas cars. They've been swapped over
04:39They did he actually overtake a car in the body?
04:42You are allowed to do you are allowed so he's seen a gap in
04:46And and does he go around the outside and off?
04:49Over the line. Oh, he does doesn't he? You're not allowed to do that. I
04:55Don't think you're allowed to touch the line let alone go over it
04:58I say they treat it like a concrete wall. So well, we see sometimes that's okay getting past piastri
05:04but the next bit
05:06We might see a better angle and this is I'm sure this is why we're seeing replays here
05:09he's got the Ferrari of Carlos science right there and Hamilton on the inside of the Ferrari manages to
05:15Undertake as it were around the banking to start his lap and Max Verstappen
05:20Has been noted for failing to follow race directors instructions
05:24And the reason that we're keen to get a move on there is that the checkered flag has now fallen and Sergio Perez missed it
05:30It's whole combo with a 122 3 Magnuson quickest with a one twenty point four
05:36So he goes fastest by a second for Fernando Alonso's
05:40Who's in the pits Joe Guan you?
05:43Can't go faster his teammate Valtteri Bottas behind Magnuson
05:46Pierre Gasly who was on the podium here last year goes quick
05:50it's Pierre Gasly with the fastest time at the end the track was a lot drier from Kevin Magnuson and
05:57Valtteri Bottas Fernando Alonso at one stage was the quickest driver. He didn't come back out again
06:03When we finally got going two minutes before the checkered flag and it was a red flag
06:08For well over 40 minutes because of the crash that has seen Logan Sargent's car
06:15Get very very badly damaged. He's fine. The car certainly isn't he won't be taking part in qualifying
06:22We would imagine it's a chassis change as well
06:24There's a big rebuild going on down at Williams, but the driver as I say, mainly
06:30The main issue is he is fine, and that's a good thing
06:33Frustrating because there was a lot to be learned out there and I'm not sure the team's got the learning done
06:38But it was Pierre Gasly who finished up on top
