Red Bull chief Christian Horner has demanded a full investigation by the FIA into why a tractor recovery vehicle was allowed on the track at the Japanese Grand Prix in a scary incident for Pierre Gasly.
Torrential rain hit the Suzuka track and a frantic first lap resulted in Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon crashing out, with some drivers including Gasly returning to the pit-lane. Red flags were enforced and as the AlphaTauri driver approached the back of the pack behind a safety car he had a scary moment almost hitting a recovery vehicle.
The incident sparked worrying memories of Jules Bianchi's fatal crash in 2014 when he crashed into a recovery vehicle and died nine months later.
