Kimi Antonelli will face the Azerbaijan Grand Prix stewards as a
result of the incident involving Williams' Alex Albon. Midway
through the session, Albon clipped the inside of the barrier at
Turn 1, breaking the front-left suspension of his car. As one of
only two drivers without a time to his name at that stage,
Antonelli was under immediate pressure to log a lap. The young
Italian sailed past the Williams along the short straight between
Turns 1 and 2 when he was informed over the radio there were
double-waved yellows in place. "I didn't see it," shouted Antonelli
over the radio, before finally backing off. The stewards, however,
will look at the situation post-qualifying, with Antonelli under
investigation for a yellow-flag infringement. Given double-waved
yellows were on show, it is likely the Mercedes driver will face a
penalty.
