“I had very slight damage but it was nothing,” he said after yesterday’s race. Magnussen has repeatedly said insisted it is unnecessary to force a driver to replace their front wing to make a minor repair.
On all three occasions a front wing endplate was the damaged part in question. Magnussen had to pit from 12th place on lap six, dropping him to last, from where he finished outside of the points. Race control displayed the flag to Magnussen for a third time when he picked up front wing damage at the start of yesterday’s race. Magnussen had been shown it twice already this year in the Canadian and Hungarian rounds prior to yesterday’s race. The flag, which ordinarily does not appear often in F1, forces drivers to pit in order have a problem with their car addressed.
