And once again we have a red flag at the Baku circuit. Offender? Antonio Giovinazzi. The Italian rammed his Alfa Romeo into the wall at turn fifteen, in exactly the same spot as Lance Stroll did a few minutes earlier in qualifying.

At the time of Giovinazzi's crash, Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez had already clocked a time. The same goes for the Ferrari-duo, but the men from Mercedes, McLaren and AlphaTauri for example, didn't yet.

The positions nineteen and twenty for the starting grid of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix are known: Giovinazzi and Stroll. That's good news for the Haas F1 team, who for the first time this season will not have both drivers on the last row of the grid.
