A massive collision involving Kevin Magnussen, Sergio Perez and Nico Hulkenberg brought out the red flags in Monaco...
The fact that a huge shunt involving Kevin Magnussen , Sergio Perez and Nico Hulkenberg in Monaco happened on the first lap is what saved Magnussen from a race ban, claims 13-time race winner David Coulthard.
Considering the circumstances, Coulthard says Magnussen should have been backing out of that move, but instead triggered the shunt by keeping his nose stuck in. “And once that contact was made, that is a huge energy crash at the beginning of a grand prix, car heavy with fuel as well. “The stewards have put it down as a racing incident, but that accident was caused because Magnussen stuck his nose in and the chances of outdragging him up the hill and around the outside on a non-straight, slim and none.”Coulthard was therefore asked if he felt that the shunt occurring on Lap 1 influenced the steward verdict of no further action?
