Haas F1 team principal Guenther Steiner admits the damage caused by Mick Schumacher’s latest crash at the JapaneseGP is “quite frustrating”
“It’s disappointing because we just went out to do a race start so we get data for Sunday,” Steiner told F1TV
“And then on the way in from the race start Mick crashed the car, aquaplaned and crashed into the barrier and damaged the car quite heavily. “The whole front is broken but we also have to change the whole chassis because we’re not sure if there is a crack in it or not and you cannot take any risks with the chassis.
“There is nothing changed in any way, except that maybe we could have gone out in FP2 for 10 minutes, but that is not important.“It’s better to be 100% safe that the car is in a good shape tomorrow. So we have to change the chassis and the whole front end and the front wing and the nose.” That’s not good. Mick loses control of the car and hits the barriers, on his way back to the pits after the session has finished.
