Four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel crashed out of the Malaysian Grand Prix on the very first bend at Sepang Sunday after breaking his front suspension in a collision with Nico Rosberg and Max Verstappen.
Reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton got away safely from pole position into the lead and avoided the drama behind him as Rosberg, who leads Hamilton in the title race by eight points, rejoined the race way down in 17th position.
Vettel dived down the inside of Red Bull’s Max Verstappen in the fight for third spot, but left his his braking slightly late and tagged the right rear of second placed Rosberg. The impact pitched Rosberg in to a spin, and broke Vettel’s left front suspension – forcing him out of the race.
The FIA announced that Vettel’s driving will be looked into after the Malaysian GP finishes – with the prospect of a penalty if he is found to have caused the accident.
