Red Bull's Second Driver Hadjar Crashes in Monaco, Triggers Red Flag
Red Bull's second driver Isaak Hadjar lost control of the new-spec car at Monaco, hit the barriers and caused a red‑flag stoppage, fueling the second‑car curse. Hadjar was testing the limits of the updated chassis through the tight Monaco corners when he spun into the steel barriers.
The incident revived the narrative of a 'second‑car curse' that has haunted Red Bull since the departure of their previous junior driver. The team will now scrutinize the car's setup and Hadjar's feedback to address any technical shortcomings.
Meanwhile, the race resumed after a brief cleanup, leaving the championship battle unchanged.
