Caused by the one of the Red Bull junior drivers Liam Lawson who's been tipped to replace Perez.

Everyone ok. Lawson blamed his team mate of pushing him off track.

Also found a longer version, with the driver onboards from everyone involved.

Typical first lap crash, but Lwason’s fault every day for being that far off the track and keeping his foot down.

Thankfully everyone okay, they build those cars well and the medical car was rolling as it was the first lap.

Also worrying to see two cars stalled at the front of the grid, reminicent of F2 a few years back when they introduced new clutches and there were some nasty accidents. Everyone lucky today.

An accident entirely of Lawsons own making

Fortunately everyone parties ok, but it was pretty unpleasant
