🗣 'Just too aggressive on the throttle and that was all.' Oscar Piastri knew it was inevitable he would end up crashing in F1, as a Q3 accident at the CanadianGP wrecked his chances of a better grid slot ⬇️
Asked by Autosport for a summary on what happened, Piastri said the incident was a simple throttle error – which did not take too much of a shine off what has been a fairly uplifting event.
“It is easy to do, and obviously a shame. I’m sorry to the mechanics who now have more work than they need. But yeah, all in all, I'm still reasonably happy with how the weekend has gone.”Speaking ahead of the Montreal event, Piastri had talked about needing to find the limit quicker on race weekends after admitting that he had perhaps been too cautious at times.
“I think that's been something I've tried to do through my whole career as well. I just think in the races themselves, I try to be quite sensible in some places, maybe even a bit too cautious at times.
