The ten days that accompanied F1 from Canada to Great Britain were marked by racist slips that cost dear both to Nelson Piquet and, above all, to Juri Vips. The three-time world champion was banned from the F1 paddock according to rumors, while the Estonian driver was sacked by Red Bull. The Hitech GP, however, did not abandon Vips who will be regularly in the car tomorrow in F2 in free practice and in qualifying for the Silverstone round.
Max Verstappen commented on the difficult situation in which the former member of the Red Bull youth program finds himself: “Everyone deserves a second chance, maybe not a third, but another opportunity to show that you’ve learned your lesson and become a better person is right to be given. Sometimes he doesn’t realize how much one can hurt a person or a community through the superficial use of a word. Juri is no longer a Red Bull driver, but I know him more than many other people and I guarantee you that he is a good guy that he realized he was wrong. He is going through a delicate moment in his career “.
Vips, in fact, in the second full season in F2 has collected one for now series of errors and departures from the track that are jeopardizing his run-up to the title. Currently the Hitech GP driver has to recover 77 points from championship leader Felipe Drugovich. The confirmation from the English team was the only light of difficult days for the Estonian, who tomorrow will be able to try to put everything behind him at the wheel of his Dallara.
