Perez’s Costly Mistake
Shortly after Alonso’s incident, Red Bull driver Sergio Perez made a crucial error by crashing into the wall, damaging his wing and triggering the second red flag of the session. Perez failed to correct his course after driving too quickly into the chicane, ultimately ending up in the gravel.
