Verstappen BARGES his way through the pits and gets a warning from the FIA

24 August at 11:55

Max Verstappen has been given a warning from the FIA following a pit lane incident during the third free practice for the Dutch Grand Prix. After Logan Sargeant's heavy crash, the session resumed with around two minutes remaining. Verstappen wanted to make the most of the time available and pushed his way through the pit lane.

Verstappen forces his way through

Verstappen wanted to ensure he got on the track with enough time to complete a flying lap. He pushed his way through the slow-moving cars in the pitlane but made a mistake. He crossed the white line at the pit exit and picked up a warning from the FIA. 

His Red Bull Racing teammate Sergio Perez didn't make it around the Zandvoort circuit in enough time. He didn't manage to start a flying lap before the chequered flag dropped, so he set no time during the session.
