Alpine chief Flavio Briatore said the team will take time to reflect on the appropriate course of action after a three‑car collision at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, caused by a “very poor” error from driver Franco Colapinto.

Colapinto’s mistake triggered a pile‑up that involved three cars on the Baku street circuit, prompting Briatore to call for a thorough review before any disciplinary steps are taken.

“We will need to reflect on what course of action should be taken,” Briatore said, describing the incident as a “very poor” error.

Alpine, one of the teams competing in the Formula One World Championship, has not yet announced any specific sanctions or penalties for the driver.

The Azerbaijan Grand Prix, part of the current F1 season, is known for its tight, high‑speed layout around the city’s historic streets, making incidents such as this a significant concern for teams and organisers alike.
