It was a positive Saturday, and we’ve seen the car has some pace, so that’s at least encouraging. He continued: “We finished P12 when we had an extra pit stop that I didn’t need, so it’s frustrating. Anyway, frustrating day because of that.” We explained that to the FIA because it’s the third time this year I get the flag because of that part.

Magnussen then made the switch to another pair of intermediate tyres before making a second stop for the slicks. He then received the black and orange flag – shown to drivers with a mechanical issue who need to pit – forcing him to box on Lap 7, and dropping him to the back of the field. Magnussen made contact with Max Verstappen and the back of Lance Stroll’s car on the opening lap, sustaining damage to his front wing endplate.
