Logan sargeant will not experience his first Sprint Race in Formula 1 in Baku this Saturday. The American suffered an accident during SQ1, at the very end of the session, when he hit the outside wall at turn 15. Given the extent of the damage, Williams preferred not to participate in the Sprint Race with the No. 2, constrained by a lack of time to repair the FW45.

“After collecting the FW45 after the Sprint Qualification, we have been working hard on the car but there is not enough time to complete the repair. Therefore, we removed Logan [Sargeant] from the Sprint. »

Therefore, Bottas, Zhou, De Vries et gasly gain a grid position for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix Sprint Race.
