‘Could’ve F**king Killed Him’: F1 Driver Nearly Hits Two Marshalls in Mexico GP
Liam Lawson narrowly avoided hitting two marshals clearing debris after a first lap collision, marking his fifth non-finish this season, FIA says investigation ongoing.
- Soon at the Mexico City Grand Prix, Liam Lawson narrowly missed two marshals running on the track as he exited the pit lane, but he retired early on the sixth lap.
- Because debris was reported at the turn-one apex, Race Control alerted marshals on lap 3, but instructions were rescinded after Lawson pitted, and a double yellow flag was shown.
- On team radio, Lawson exclaimed `Oh my god, are you kidding me` after footage confirmed him narrowly avoiding two marshals and Racing Bulls race engineer Ernesto Desiderio praised him.
- The incident has prompted renewed questions about FIA safety procedures, recalling Esteban Ocon's 2023 scare, and the FIA said it is still investigating after marshals were placed on standby then rescinded.
- With his fifth DNF now recorded, Lawson's retirement adds to his season non-finish tally, while Red Bull is set to announce his F1 future amid safety and performance concerns.
