A steering wheel glitch has been revealed as the cause of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Logan Sargeant’s bizarre off during the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix.

Williams driver Sargeanಌt was seen locking up and 🍌sliding off into the run-off area all by himself on Lap 10 of Saturday’s season opener in Bahrain.

Sargeant was initially told he would need to retire, but the Americ𓆏an managed to get back to the pits, where his car was fitted with a new steering wheel.

He went▨ on to finish a distant 20th after dropping to the back of the field and losing heaps of time due to the issue.

William⭕s tꦏeam principal James Vowles said that a glitch with the steering wheel changed Sargeant’s brake bias fully to the front, causing him to go off.

"With Logan, we ✨have an uncommanded brake bias movement all the way to♈ the front, which is why he went off," Vowles was quoted by Motorsport.com.

"The brake bias moved nowhe♋re near where he requested it to beꦇ.”

Speaking about his problematic race, Sargeant said: "It was just doing thi꧙ngs on its own without my asking. I don🍎't completely understand it from my side.

"We've had some electronic issues the last couple of days, qualifying and then today. So we juꦆst need to understand the core issue. We thought we fixed iꦓt, but obviously it came back.

"It didn't happen again, once we changed the steering wheel, so maybe it's something there. But we just need to understand the core cause for it, and try to not let it happenꦕ again.”

Sargeant’s teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Albon started 13th but slipped back t♔o 15th after being hampered by power unit temperatu🦩re problems.

"I know that we have a much faster car than that," Vowles said. "𝓡The fortune is only - and I shouldn't be thinking this way - in the fact that our direct rivals didn't score points either. So it became a nullified race through circumstance.

"There were ▨many things that just weren't in the right place. First and foremost, you would have seen that we were suffering with engine temperatures from lap 2.

"That's unusual. You can often have engine temperature issues, but normally manifest themselves a little bit later than that. We need to get on top💯 of understanding that, that was very, very cost🅠ly.

"So you🧸 didn't see what we can perform with. I think the field is very tight. I think we have the potential to be P11. But not to be in the points, to be clear. We have work to do to get there."
