Gasly a doubt for FP3? "If it get's too bad he has to wear diapers"
Pierre Gasly is a late doubt for the final practice session at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, with reports that the French driver has an upset stomach. Helmut Marko gave an interesting take on the situation...
Gasly and Daniil Kvyat impressed on the opening day of racing as they recorded four top-ten finishes between them in FP1 and FP2. Gasly finished eighth and then seventh as Toro Rosso look to make a statement in the midfield battle.
However, reports are saying that Pierre Gasly turned up to the paddock with an upset stomach which prompted a rather interesting response from Helmut Marko.
He was asked by Auto Motor und Sport whether Gasly would be fit to drive and he responded by saying: "I have to check. If it get's too bad he has to wear diapers."
