Kevin Magnussen

Magnussen crash triggers Monza FP2 red flag

Kevin Magnussen went off and into the barrier during second practice ahead of the Italian Grand Prix.

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.
