Liam Lawson’s race engineer saved him from a potentially very serious incident at the Dutch Grand Prix.
The New Zealander hadn’t spotted a crashed-out Charles Leclerc at turn three, and was thankfully alerted to the stopped car over team radio.
Lawson was the next car on track with Leclerc pointing the wrong waySky Thanks to his engineer, Lawson was able to dart out of the waySky“Double yellow where you are, double yellow where you are,” he was told by his engineer.
Lawson responded: “Oh my god, I couldn’t see him, you saved me there.”
Leclerc had swung across the track having lost a wheel in a collision with Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli.
The Ferrari star was caught by the young Italian having just exited the pitlane, and their collision saw him spin across the track at turn three before beaching on the inside of the corner.
Before that, though, his car was fully on the track with Lawson the next car to turn the corner.
Lawson’s radio showed how tense things were during an action-packed Sunday in the Netherlands, as he also sparked fury elsewhere.
The Racing Bulls driver was subject to a move around the outside from Carlos Sainz at turn one during a restart but shut off the Spaniard and their cars collided, both picking up punctures.
Responding to the incident on team radio, Sainz said: “He’s just so stupid, my god.
“This guy, it’s always the same guy.”
Yet the race stewards eventually deemed Sainz at fault, handing him a ten-second penalty for the incident.
Lawson got out of a huge spot of bother in the nick of timeGettySainz then vented his anger, saying: “Who? Who gets a penalty? ME? You are joking.
“You are joking. It is the most ridiculous decision of my life.”
