Why were both alfa romeos struggling so hard? What caused the accident, was it simply an over reaction by zhou, or something mechanical?
From a purely observational standpoint, Zhou had a terrible start off the line. He was getting passed from those behind him; I think he was still accelerating / maneuvering to get position when the pack was braking for the turn.
The commentators on f1tv were saying that Zhou triggered an anti-stall causing his slow start.
Exactly! And then he hit RIC, who in turn hit OCO, who hit GAS… poor alpine
Zhou was a clutch thing that was probably human error. Released too quickly, anti-stall kicked in, had to engage again, and everyone passed him. He the. Clipped Ricciardo, destroyed Gasly’s car and Ocon’s spine.
Bottas, who knows.
Ty! Makes sense
I thought I saw he had anti-stall and that caused him to drop and then he misjudged the braking.
