Monaco Grand Prix hit by RED FLAG after horrific first-lap crash tears Sergio Perez’s F1 car in half
SERGIO PEREZ saw his Formula One car get torn to bits in a horrific first-lap crash at the Monaco Grand Prix.
The Red Bull driver was tagged by Haas driver Kevin Magnussen on the inside of the track when heading up the Beau Rivage on the way to turn two.
The shocking crash saw Perez's rear right wheel clipped by Magnussen before he violently spun to the right and into the wall before the momentum took him further up the track.
Fellow Haas driver Nico Hulkenberg was then caught up in the madness as Perez's car caught him and forced him to spin around.
Stewards then initially waved for a yellow flag before quickly upgrading it to a red flag and stopping the session.
