Isaakyan was in contention for a podium finish until his car crashed out with about an hour remaining in the race. The crash wasnt featured on the broadcast but it was suggested that the Russians vehicle became at least “partially” airborne.
As video footage, which has emerged following the incident, shows – that was something of an understatement.
