AlphaTauri has uncovered what really happened with Yuki Tsunoda’s bizarre crabbing car in Formula 1’s Baku sprint race, as investigations concluded its suspension broke coming out of the pits.The Japanese brushed the wall on the opening lap after clashing with team-mateand, as he returned to the pits, his right rear tyre flew off the rim – briefly rolling down the track.
However, AlphaTauri’s own investigations this week have concluded that the suspension was intact when the car left the pits, and that a rear track rod failed only as load was put through it on the right hander of the pit exit. “We did a lot of investigation on the sprint race,” he said. “And actually, when Yuki stopped, the car wasn't damaged and was safe to release.“We have seen that the rear right suspension failed at the pit exit, and then the car ended up like you saw on TV with the three wheels.”
“In the pitstop, we did have a look,” he said. “We couldn't see any damage and we saw in the data and in the video footage that this [the suspension breaking] only happened later.
