Isack Hadjar receives support after Australian GP crash

Isack Hadjar's debut in Formula 1 at the Australian Grand Prix ended in disappointment. The young French driver crashed during the formation lap, before he could even complete a single lap. The wet conditions made it difficult, causing him to lose control of his car and hit the barrier. Hadjar was visibly upset following the crash. However, he received support from notable figures in the sport. Anthony Hamilton, father of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, offered comforting words. He reminded Hadjar of a similar incident in Lewis's career, which helped ease the young driver's disappointment. Lewis Hamilton himself later reached out to Hadjar with encouragement. Despite having his own challenges during the race, Hamilton wanted to support the rookie. He shared his experience of feeling judged in such moments and urged Hadjar to enjoy the experience without too much pressure. On the other hand, Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko criticized Hadjar's emotional response to the crash. He called it "a bit embarrassing," but Hadjar took the comment lightly and spoke positively about his relationship with Marko. Despite the setback, Hadjar appreciated the support he received from the racing community. He sees this experience as a learning opportunity and remains optimistic about his future races.
