Alexander Albon: Second consecutive points finish
Albon finished seventh in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix F1 race at Baku City Circuit on Sunday.
Analysis:
Albon noted some displeasure with the car after his qualifying session, but he nevertheless reached Q3 for the fourth time in his last six races. Saturday's qualifying session presented an especially unique scenario, as he exited pit lane with the cooling fan still attached to his airbox. That miscue cost him a chance to record a time in Q3 and placed him 10th on the grid. From there, Albon drove a strong race to convert points for the third time in his last six grand prix, a significant improvement in form from the start of the season.
