F1 fans were treated to one of the most incredible SaoPaulo Grands Prix in recent memory.
Oscar Piastri will rue a sixth lap error that could well hve ended his hopes of winning the world title.
The race has already been put under safety car restrictions and fresh off the restart from Gabriel Bortoleto’s crash, the Aussie bumped into Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli with that impact forcing Charles Leclerc off the track.
That incident subsequently ended the Ferrari driver's race and Piastri copped a 10-second penalty.
"Was he squeezed? Was he over ambitious? Was he in control," they're the questions the stewards will have asked, Martin Brundle said.
And that was just six laps in.
Lewis Hamilton was later retired from the race ending a miserable weekend for Ferrari.
Earlier in the weekend, Piastri crashed out of the sprint race in Sao Paulo meaning he trails Lando Norris by nine points in the title race.
