The restart at the Grand Prix of Tuscany went completely wrong. Valtteri Bottas waited for a long time to pull away and that meant the back of the field didn't realise. Antonio Giovinazzi, Latifi, Magnussen and Sainz were all eliminated in the incident.

Bottas chose to go late on the gas at the restart after the first safety car. A number of drivers at the back of the field didn't realise this and it led to a chain reaction and a big crash bringing to the race to an end for four drivers.

Sainz, Latifi, Giovinazzi and Magnussen all retired. The havoc was so great that Michael Masi had no choice but to stop the race with a red flag.
