Barcelona Day 2: Albon announces his arrival with a first lap spin
F1 NewsTuesday, 19 February 2019 at 09:15
Toro Rosso rookie Alexander Albon's first lap as a fully fledged Formula 1 driver ended in the gravel several hundred meters from his pit garage, as he spun on cold tyres on his out lap to announce his arrival in the top flight, early on the second day of preseason testing at Circuit de Catalunya.
Albon appeared to lose the backend of the STR14 at relatively low speed, but on a green track and on a much colder day than yesterday. He ended facing the wrong way in the gravel between Turns 4 and 5 prompting a red flag period as the car was recovered.
