Magnussen crash triggers Monza FP2 red flag

Second practice ahead of this weekend’s Italian Grand Prix has been red-flagged, following an accident for Kevin Magnussen.

With just under 30 minutes of the session remaining, the Haas driver lost the rear of his VF-24 as he entered Turn 7 – the second Lesmo – and span through the gravel. 

His car finally came to a halt after making heavy contact with the barrier, ending his session and resulting in a red flag for his car to be retrieved and for barrier repairs to be made. 

It marks a disappointing day at Monza for the Dane, who caused a €7,500 fine for Haas after impeding Carlos Sainz in second practice.  

Lewis Hamilton topped the session at the time of Magnussen’s crash, ahead of Lando Norris and Sainz.
