Masi explains red flag decision in Baku
FIA race director Michael Masi opted to red-flag the Azerbaijan Grand Prix because he feared the race wouldn’t be able to start again if he didn’t. When Lance Stroll suffered a tire failure and crashed on the pit straight on lap 30, the incident was covered by a Safety Car that stayed out for five laps. However, when Verstappen crashed with six laps remaining – also as the result of a tire failure on the pit straight – the race was red-flagged and a two-lap sprint from a standing start followed. Masi said the decision was not triggered by Red Bull suggesting a stoppage to allow all drivers to change tires.
