Although several drivers failed to see🌼 the chequered flag for the latest round of the GP2 Series at Silverstone, it was ar🅷guably Andreas Zuber who was most aggrieved after retiring in bizarre circumstances.

Reveling in his best q꧂ualifying position of the year in sixth place, Zuber was running comfortably in fifth place before hi🤪s in-car fire extinguisher let itself off, spraying liquid onto the Austrian's visor and forcing him to spin off.

It was a disappointing end to what would have been Zuber's best-ever finish, with the rookie understandably𝓀 frustrated with th💧e incident.

"I was fifth. I was doing a great battle with Giorgio. I demonstrated I can manage an hard dogf💞ight keeping the position with fairplay. Then, all of a sudden with five lap🦄s to go, the fire extinguisher started by itself and I got my visor obscured by the liquid. It was impossible to see the track anymore and so I spun. I would really like to swear but. patience".

Trident Racing team mate 'Gimmi' Bruni was another who failed to s♒ee the chequered flag after gearbox s🍸idelined him from another possible strong finish.

"While I was fifth I💧 lost the fourth gear. I went on but six laps later even the third was gone. Four laps after I had to stop because I remained with no speeds at all. What could I ꩵsay?"
