Sergio Perez says he was in the \u201cwrong place, wrong time\u201d after crashing out of Formula 1's Qatar Grand Prix sprint event following contact with Nico Hulkenberg and Esteban Ocon.
Ocon was losing ground on his fading soft tyres when Hulkenberg tried to pass him on the exit of Turn 1, and Perez in turn drew alongside the Haas as they approached the Turn 2 left-hander. With Ocon on the inside, Hulkenberg was caught in a sandwich between the two cars. After contact from the Haas, Ocon was sent spinning across Hulkenberg's bows and into Perez's Red Bull.
“It is clear that I saw Nico, I knew he was there, but it is impossible for me at that point to see Sergio on the right side. Three abreast is not a good idea on that corner unfortunately, so I think it's a racing incident.” Hulkenberg said he could see Perez coming, and tried in vain to get out of the way. “It all happened very quickly, very unfortunate,” said the German.
