Alexander Albon has had a difficult weekend at the Hungaroring after struggling with an “unpredictable” car in which he could only qualify 13th on Saturday.
Their career got off to a better start and two-thirds of the way away, they had reached sixth place, but their race day could still get worse after the stewards summoned a Red Bull representative to see them after the race to investigate a sport violation. regulations
The team is accused of using the blowers they use to cool the car’s engine and brakes to dry Albon’s grill slot before the start of the race.
FIA technical delegate Jo Bauer reported the incident once the race started. His statement read: “The Aston Martin Red Bull Racing team artificially dried the grill box of the 23rd car using the engine cooling air from their leaf blowers when they used them to cool the car’s engine.
“As this is in contradiction to the Race Directors Notes, Document 35, posted on July 19, 2020 at 1:56 p.m., I am referring this matter to the Stewards for their consideration.”
