Hulkenberg was DSQ for receiving outside ass🔯istance following a spin.
Drivers are not allowed to ꧂receive assistance in returning to the race after crashing.
Hulkenberg’s was the🔯 first black flag DQ from an F1 grand prix since 2007.
Giancarlo Fisichella🌺 and Fe✱lipe Massa both received the rare disqualification via a black flag 17 years ago in Canada.
They both exited the pits when the🔯 lights were red.
But Hulken꧅berg brought back the black-flagged DQ when 🐽he spun his Haas on Turn 1 on Lap 27 of the wet race.
The Virtual ꦯSafety Car came out and Hulkenberg rejoined - but only due to the marshals’ 🐻help.
