Kvyat hits out at “unprofessional” Albon after collision in F1 Eifel GP

🅷Daniil Kvyat has labelled Alex Albon “unprofessional” after the pair came together during Formula 1’s Eifel 👍Grand Prix.
Albon and Kvyat made contract at the final corner after an intense 🦄scrap over 10th place, with Kvyat initially running wide at the last chicane. The AlphaTauri driver cut across the grass before re-joining ahead of Albon, whose Red Bull clipped♎ Kvyat as he swept past.
The contact removed Kvyat’s front wing and forced him into an unscheduled stop having completed a full lap without th🎉e wing attached to his AT01 after passing the pit lane. The incident ruined Kvyat’s race as he ultimately crossed the line 15th and last.
“I didn’t under🐭stand his manoeuv🌳re really,” Kvyat said.
“What was he doing? I think⛎ it was quite unprofessional of him and poor judgement, so🌼 you wouldn’t expect that from a driver of his level, who’s been racing so long.
“But anyway, the race was pretty much ruined from then on. I had to do the whole lap very slow with the🐽 damaged front wing as a consequence.
“It went under my floor, damaged my whole floor, the brake cooling, and the race from there was really a struggle because the car was massively down on dꩲownforce, and I was just really hoping for rain or something reꦍally strange to happen.”

Albon was 🍨given a five-second time penalty but did not take his punishment after retiring from the race with a punctured radiator.
The Thai racer also received 𓄧two penalty points on his licence for the collision and he admitted the contact came after a misjudgement on his beh𓂃alf.
“Obviously Dany ran a bit wide in the ch💟icane and it was a bit of a misjudgement on my side,” Albon explained. “I don’t really know [what happened] but we went into the last corner and we touched.
“The pace in the car is good,” added Albon, who’d qualified an encouraging P5, “so it’s annoying to have a result like this now. But to be honest, on my side, I wasn’t really too happy﷽ with my race, just a few mistakes, and obviously the lock-up [on Lap 1] compromised us a lot.”
