168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kevin Magnussen still feels 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez could have done more to avoid their first-lap crash at the F1 Monaco Grand Prix.
The pair came together as Magnussen tried to put his Haas up the inside of Perez’s Red Bull heading up the hill on the opening lap. Perez was sent spearing into the barriers and collected Magnussen’s teammate168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Nico Hulkenberg in the ensuing chaos, which res💞ulted in the race being suspended.
Perez and Magnussen🅺 pointed the finger at each other for the incident and the latter is convinc💖ed the Mexican was not completely innocent.
“I don't see Checo as a dirty driver or anything,” Mag✃nussen said ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix. “But I was surprised that he didn't leave me the room.
“Clearly, he was just pushing me to the wall to intimidate me and 🍌have me back out. But that's certainly not the way we should be racing.
“He can't argue that he didn't see me. He saw me. There's no way around it. He did see me. So🐼 yeah, that is the reason I kept it flat, because I trusted that he would leave me th🍎e space since he'd seen me.
“He had s🌜een me, and I knew he had seen me. It’s one th🎶ing if you're not sure he's seen you, then I perceive the risk as being bigger.
“If I wasn't sure that he's seen me, I prob💖ably would have just backed off. But it was very clear to me that he had seen me. 💃So, I thought okay, he's going to leave a car width. I trusted that he was going to do that. In hindsight, I shouldn't have trusted him.
“But that doesn't change the fact that he didn't leave a car wi൩dth. Maybe with my experie𓂃nce, I should have known that certain drivers don't always leave a car width. There is always a risk that they won’t.”
And having had the opportunꦡity to review the inc🥃ident on replays, Magnussen stands by his original view.
“I've looked at it many times,” the Dane added. “It's always one thing right when it happens, but your view of what happens often changes when you see it from the outside. But in this case, it didn't change𓂃 so much.”
