The images of the cars passed by the tractor who was recovering the car of Carlos Sainz under the regime of Red flag, did not leave indifferent the public and obviously the drivers themselves on the track, who made themselves felt strongly both during the interruption and at the end of the race. The thought obviously immediately went to the never healed wound of the absurd disappearance of Jules Bianchi in 2014, right on the Suzuka track and in similar weather conditions, and the most affected seemed Pierre Gasly, who did not hide the shock he suffered at seeing the recovery vehicle next to him, while he was rejoining the group. The story then had some aftermath at the Race Direction, with the Frenchman of the Alpha Tauri who was penalized by 20 ″ and 2 penalty points on his license for having kept a speed too high – which also touched 251 km / h – under the red flag regime and with the tractor on the track.
What happened, as mentioned, however, has affected the drivers and spectators not a little, so much so that the Federation in the Japanese evening he issued a statement, where he announced the start of an analysis of those excited moments, which seemed so critical for safety on the track: “Although it is normal practice to retrieve cars under the Safety Car or red flag regime, due to the particular circumstances and taking into account the advice given by some drivers, the FIA will start one accurate review of the events, which will include the exit on the track of recovery vehicles occurred during the Japanese GP. This is part of the usual practice of debriefing and analysis of race incidents, in order to guarantee continuous improvement of processes and procedures “.
