Alfa Romeo provided some remarkable images during the Safety Car. Antonio Giovinazzi came in for a pitstop, but one of the Pirelli tyres turned out to be flat. It makes for some remarkable images.
Bad luck for Giovinazzi
Because of a Safety Car for Yuki Tsunoda, Alfa Romeo wanted to take a gamble and bring Giovinazzi in. A smart strategy, because Giovianzzi didn't have to come in. However, things went seriously wrong at the pitstop, because one tyre turned out to be flat. Changing one tyre is not possible, so the team had to change the whole set. Because of that Giovinazzi lost around 35 seconds.
