OKBET WEBSITE : After making contact on the first lap of Sunday’s Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Daniel Ricciardo and Kevin Magnussen were forced to retire. The two drivers involved provided statements after the collision, each describing what happened.
On the opening lap of the race, Ricciardo and Magnussen were vying for ninth place when the McLaren driver hooked the back of the Danish driver’s VF-22 on the entrance to Turn 8, sending the Haas car spinning.
Magnussen slid backwards into the path of Ricciardo as the Australian tried to pass him, causing a second incident that sent Ricciardo into the barriers and ultimately eliminated both drivers from the race.
After the race, Ricciardo said that the crash was a “brutal” way for both drivers’ races to finish, and that he would be starting from the back of the grid for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as a result.
According to Ricciardo, “Lap 1 situations are nasty for sure.” I can’t imagine anything more disappointing than getting into an accident on the first lap of a race. First few laps went well, with [Pierre] Gasly at the wheel. Having not yet watched a replay, all I can say is that I had a good run into turns six and seven, then I cut back to the inside for turn eight, where I was partly looking, partly attempting to brake with some clear air.
It seemed to bottle up a little bit, and then at the apex I gave him a little touch, but I remember braking and Kevin defending the line, so I was just trying to draw back in line. We made more of a contact in the second half, although at first it didn’t seem like much.
When pressed for an explanation, he said, “I dunno…” I’m not sure whether it was the fact that I didn’t stop hard enough or if it was the manner he turned the bend that caused the accident. Furthermore, I am not here to claim that it is his fault or my responsibility; if it is my fault, then I will apologize.

“But really, it’s simply that I feel bad for both of our teams and for us personally that we couldn’t finish the race. That’s the hardest part… and accidents on lap one are the worst of all.
Meanwhile, Magnussen, who secured his first F1 pole position on Friday, was upset that Haas were not given an opportunity to “capitalise” on the faster speeds they had showed in Brazil.
Magnussen said, “That was certainly a race I wanted to be a part of.” Our automobile has been really fast this weekend, in my opinion… There was no malice in Daniel’s actions, yet we can’t utilize the information nonetheless. However, we will progress.

We don’t normally have a good time, but this weekend has been an exception. Our vehicle had terrific pace all week, and it’s a pity we weren’t able to take full use of it today.
