Formula 2: Victor Martins comes close to tragedy by narrowly avoiding firefighters (video)

2023-05-28T09:50:51.101Z

Highlights: The safety car had burst onto the track, allowing the intervention of firefighters. At the turn of a corner, Martins avoided them at the last moment with a stroke of the steering wheel on his right. The Franco-Portuguese driver, who competes in F2 with a French license, received a penalty for drive-through. The 21-year-old is currently third in the drivers' standings. The Monaco Grand Prix took place on Sunday afternoon. The race was the first since Michael Doohan's accident.


The young French Formula 2 driver passed very close to two firefighters on the Monaco circuit, while the safety car was on the track.


Whew. Perhaps this is what Victor Martins told himself, helmet screwed on his head and rather well protected in case of accident. This is not the case of the firefighters who had burst onto the Monaco circuit this Sunday, in the middle of the Formula 2 Grand Prix after Michael Doohan's accident.
