Esteban Ocon comes close to hitting people allowed on pit lane before the race had ended.
There was a lucky escape during the closing stages of Formula 1’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix Sunday when Esteban Ocon avoided people in the pit lane. Ocon ran a lengthy stint on the Hard tires, having started the race from the back, in the hope that a late Safety Car period of race suspension would allow him to contend for points on fresh tires. But when such a scenario failed to materialize Alpine opted to pit Ocon on the penultimate lap for his mandatory tire stop.
As Ocon came into the pit lane he encountered FIA personnel setting up parc ferme – the area where cars stop after the race – as well as other assorted personnel who had been allowed into the pit lane in advance of the podium ceremony. People swiftly darted out of the way, missing Ocon’s car by inches, and he continued to the Alpine box for his pit stop before completing the final lap of the race.
“Yeah, it was definitely scary, I don’t know why everyone was starting to prep the podium,” said Ocon.This content is imported from Twitter. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.
