Although several drivers failed to see the chequered flag for the latest round of the GP2 Series at Silverstone, it was arguably Andreas Zuber who was most aggrieved after retiring in bizarre cir꧒cumstances.

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

It was a disappointing end to wh💝at would have been Zuber's best-ever finish, with the rookie underℱstandably frustrated with the incident.

"I was fifth. I was doing a great battle with Giorgio. I demonstrated I can manage an hard dogfight keeping th♍e position with fairplay. Then, all of a sudden with five laps to go, the fire extinguisher started by itself and I got my visor obscured by the liquid. It was impossible to see thဣe 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 see the chequered flag after gearbox sidelin🥂ed him from another possible strong finish.

"Whဣile 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 say?"
