Most formula car racers grow up on go carts, which also have open wheels - no sheet metal around the tires. The kid racers grow up knowing that two pairs of VERY sticky racing tires must never come in contact. If yours touch those of the car next to you, the car behind is launched up and forward... instantly and violently.
Nobody should reach Formula 3 without that lesson firmly etched into their brain. The video shows the results clearly and dramatically.
This incident was affirmative action in action. To score points for promoting a woman into their driver's seat, they moved her up before she was ready ... short circuited her trip to the big circuits. Dang lucky they didn't kill her.
