The accident involving French driver Isack Hadjar (Red Bull) marked the second day of Formula 1 tests in Barcelona, which were hampered by rain and limited to only two teams on track. The French Red Bull driver was the main protagonist of the day's most relevant incident when he crashed into the barriers of the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in the final hour. Hadjar, who had set the fastest time on the opening day, got back into the RB22 after the lunch break in a complex context, with a wet track and intermittent rain. Despite the adverse conditions, the Frenchman managed to complete several laps on intermediate and wet tires, sharing the track exclusively with Ferrari. However, in the final part of the session, Hadjar lost control of the single-seater on the last corner of the layout and ended up backing into the Tecpro barrier. The impact caused a red flag and forced the activity to be halted, with visible damage to the Red Bull's suspension and rear wing. The Austrian team confirmed that the driver is in good physical condition, although the car had to be removed on a support truck, ending his work for the day.
