Did not start

Australian Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton's father Anthony Hamilton has revealed why he rushed to greet Isack Hadjar in the paddock following the Racing Bulls rookie’s formation lap exit at the Australian Grand Prix.

Hadjar had enjoyed a strong start to his F1 career, positioning himself as the fastest rookie driver in both of the first two free practice sessions and cementing his pace in qualifying – securing 11th on the grid while narrowly missing out on a Q3 spot.

But this was quickly overshadowed in treacherous conditions on Sunday, when he lost control of his car at Turn 2 on the formation lap and spun into the barriers. In the final classifications, this resulted in a Did Not Start notice next to his name.
