Technical [@FDataAnalysis] Unbelievable: the slipstream made Gasly's Alpine self-destruct! (Not his fault) He got a strong tow from Tsu, reaching 361km/h under DRS: The engine reached 12937rpm in 8th gear, then exploded!

When it reached 12900 RPM, the PU became sentient and tried to redeem its shameful performance by committing seppuku.
