He was also fined €60,000 for the post-race incident, but the rap sheet doesn’t end there. The young driver was also fined €6000 after being spotted driving from the F1 and F2 paddocks with a glove off one hand. And in that hand was a mobile phone…

funny enough, they wouldnt care if he did this in NASCAR, drivers hit eachother after races all the time, also as for the other things he did like holding his phone, they wouldnt care, or about him asking to have Trump endorsements on the car, NASCAR has had that

It only gets more ridiculous from here . He tried to run a ‘Trump-make America great again’ livery . I feel sorry that America is being represented in f2 by an idiotlike him .
