Sebastien Bourdais must have been told to test his top speed during testing in Spain – as the Frenchman threw his brand new Toro Rosso into the wall.
Toro Rosso were expected to launch STR3 at the Turkish Grand Prix, but in his first outing, Bourdais went “too fast”, according to team officials. Mechanical failure has been ruled out, but the main concern for Toro Rosso is that the new STR3 will not be ready for the planned launch date in Turkey.
Before the crash, the new Toro Rosso set the eighth fastest time at the Circuit de Catalunya. The car looks to be a step up from STR2B, but we might not see it in Turkey.
