W17 destroyed
Andrea Kimi Antonelli he destroyed his Mercedes W17 in the third free practice session of the Australian GP. The Italian driver exaggerated at the exit of the first chicane, taking the curb too vehemently and lost the rear end, crashing heavily into the barriers.
The Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff he tried to console and shake up an Antonelli who was, to say the least, dejected after this mistake. Below is the video and translation of the dialogue between Wolff and Antonelli.
“You can clearly see what happened, right?” Wolff says to Antonelli. “Have you ever taken a curb like this?”. “I think I took it a little harder – Antonelli replies – I had so much faith.”. “Don’t lose faith, keep it“, concludes Wolff.
