Summary

When an F1 car crashes, the repair bill is only the beginning. Colin Murray and Natalie Pirks explore the hidden cost of crashes in Formula 1, from lost upgrades and valuable data to the millions at stake in the Constructors’ Championship. They look at why a mistake can hit smaller teams like Haas far harder than the likes of Mercedes, Ferrari or Red Bull, and what happens when teammates become each other’s biggest rivals. With former F1 team principal Otmar Szafnauer bringing a view from inside the paddock, they reveal how crashes can affect far more than the car, costing teams time, development and potentially their position on the grid.
