Bizarre footage of a botched pit stop at the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix has been explained.

Alpine’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon came into the pits - but h🐷aꦓd just a single mechanic seemingly ready for his arrival.

Ocon drove off, as a result, wasting precious time and needing to pit agai𒅌n la💎ter.

“Ocon was a miscommunication in ♐the pits between the engineers and the mechanics,” Sky Sports’ Ted Kravitz explained.

“So when Ocon came in to the garage, t🌠he 💖mechanics had not been told, and were not out in the pit.

“Ocon was lik🔥e ‘woah I’ve come in here, where iಞs my pit crew? Bit odd…’

“So he went through and wasted 11 seconds of race time, then had to come by and pit again when the p❀it crew were told that ‘Ocon is coming in’.

“He had to pit for soft tyres at the end, on Lap 46, because his tyres were gone. A ⛄new set of softs were the only tyres he had🅠 left.”

Ocon could only finish 17th at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, having qualified ꦺin 11th.

On a dreadful day for Alpine, Ocon’s teammate 🌸Pierre Gasly l🍷ined up third on the starting grid but failed to finish.

“Gasly was 🎀a DNF because some cylinders started to go off, then the engine pretty much blew,” Kravitz explained.

Alpine have lost crucial ground in the constructors😼’ championship after their bad day at the office.

Haas have overtaken them into sixth plac💖e in the standings after Nico Hulkenberg finished within the ൩points.

Each spot in the constღructors’ championship is worth approximately $10 million - meaning Alpine’s forgettable Las 🐼Vegas Grand Prix could hit them in the pocket.

They have two round♑s remaining this seasonꦍ to claw back a place, and the money as a result.
