Jacques Villeneuve calls out Oscar Piastri after costly Azerbaijan GP error: "Rookie mistake"

1997 Formula 1 champion Jacques Villeneuve branded Oscar Piastri's Azerbaijan Grand Prix lock-up as a "rookie mistake".

The Australian driver suffered a double lock-up during the race at the Baku City Circuit while he was running third.

The incident took him out of podium contention and left him fighting in 15th place.
