"Lap 2/51: Piastri's crash is the big talking point. He jumped the start and it all went wrong from there. High drama. Share Piastri appeared to lock up while trying to regain position from the back. Could that change the fate of the title? It's a huge opportunity for Norris. The championship leader doesn't even make it through the first lap. He's in the wall and the safety car has been called. Oscar Piastri goes into the wall and is out of the Grand Prix!"
"Lap 4/51: The safety car comes in and we're back under way in Baku. Verstappen guns it, while Russell is overtaken by Tsunoda and drops back to sixth. Share Lap 3/51: Esteban Ocon has had to come into the pit to swap tyres after an early collision with Nico Hulkenberg. A chaotic start to the race! Share Lap 2/51: Piastri's crash is the big talking point. He jumped the start and it all went wrong from there."
"Asked about race strategy, Hamilton gave some interesting insight. I think it's really dependant on the weather or the wind, particularly the temperature of the day, he said. At this temperature it's probably closer to a one-stop I imagine, but if it gets cooler it could lead to graining, so who knows. Share Lewis Hamilton, who starts in 12th place, has been speaking to Sky Sports."
Oscar Piastri jumped the start, crashed into the wall on the first lap, and retired from the Grand Prix, prompting a safety car. The safety car returned to the pits on lap four and racing resumed with Max Verstappen accelerating away. George Russell was overtaken by Yuki Tsunoda and fell to sixth. Esteban Ocon pitted to change tyres after a collision with Nico Hulkenberg. Lewis Hamilton started twelfth and said strategy depends on weather and track temperature, favoring a likely one-stop at current temperatures but warning of potential graining if it cools.
