Must-see: Mick Schumacher narrowly avoids Tsunoda in safety car line | 2022 Australian GP. Mick narrowly avoids Tsunoda in safety car line.

Preparing for a restart from a Safety Car period in the 2022 Australian Grand Prix, Ferrari junior Mick Schumacher had to swerve to the left to avoid running into the back of Yuki Tsunoda’s AlphaTauri. The latter had suddenly braked, doing so in response to his team-mate, Pierre Gasly, hitting the brakes.

None of the drivers did anything wrong, it is just something drivers do before a restart as they try to get heat into their tyres.

For Mick Schumacher, it was an all-too-close encounter.
