During the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Racing Bulls drivers Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad were involved in a collision at Turn 1 following a Safety Car restart. Lindblad made contact with the side of Lawson’s car, causing Lawson to spin and sustain significant damage to his vehicle's floor. 

Despite the incident, Lindblad secured a seventh-place finish, earning six points that helped Racing Bulls maintain fifth place in the Constructors' Championship. Lawson finished in 12th place. Following an investigation, FIA stewards decided not to penalize Lindblad, citing restricted space and a chain reaction involving another driver. 

Lawson expressed frustration over the lack of penalty, stating, “I don’t understand it, because I got hit so hard that it put a hole in my floor.” Lindblad issued a public apology to his teammate, describing the situation as an “absolute mess” and noting he was glad the team still secured points.
