Sergio "Checo" Perez hit a barrier during the Singapore Grand Prix sprint and damaged his front wing. Formula 1 said Perez reversed out and continued, while Chris Medland reported that the incident initially brought out a yellow flag.
Perez made his way back toward the pits, but a piece of the damaged wing came off on the circuit. Medland reported that a large section was left on track, and The Race also noted substantial debris.
The session was then red-flagged. Formula 1 said the fallen wing pieces needed to be cleared from the track.
