The British Grand Prix turned into a nightmare for Racing Bulls as Isack Hadjar suffered a dramatic crash, resulting in a double Did Not Finish (DNF) for the team.

During the chaotic race at Silverstone, Hadjar became the fourth driver to retire after colliding with Mercedes driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli in intensely wet weather conditions. The Racing Bulls driver cited poor visibility as the reason for the crash, which sent him careening into the gravel and ultimately into the barriers, prompting a yellow flag.

While Antonelli managed to soldier on with a damaged diffuser, Hadjar, along with other rookie drivers like Franco Colapinto, Liam Lawson, and Gabriel Bortoleto, had to prematurely end their race.

The Silverstone circuit was lashed with heavy rain, forcing teams to adopt varying strategies. Despite his struggles during qualifying, where he finished 13th fastest, Hadjar remained unfazed by the weather conditions, stating, “Honestly, I don’t really care because we’re quite far from where we want to be, so if it’s chaos we take it.”

Reflecting on the challenging qualifying session, Hadjar described the conditions as “tricky” and highlighted the unpredictable nature of the track due to factors like wind affecting his braking points and car balance.

As the British Grand Prix unfolded with nail-biting drama, Racing Bulls faced a setback with Hadjar’s crash adding to their woes. The team will need to regroup and strategize for the upcoming races to bounce back from this disappointing result.
