Formula 1 fans have rallied behind Isack Hadjar following his summons to the stewards for alleged misconduct during the Mexican Grand Prix. The incident began when a video surfaced showing Hadjar pushing a fan as they attempted to take a selfie with the driver. The fan repeatedly tried to get a photo with Hadjar, despite being politely asked to give him space. Hadjar pushed the fan back and shooed him away.
Hadjar's actions drew mixed reactions from fans. While some defended him, stating that personal space should be respected in paddocks, others criticized his behavior, likening it to a "zoo" where drivers have no boundaries or respect for fans. Ralf Schumacher had previously told Sky Deutschland that Hadjar "needs to take it down a notch" after his angry radio messages during the Austin Grand Prix.
The incident comes days after Red Bull driver Alex Marquez considered undergoing surgery to avoid missing the upcoming Qatar Grand Prix. Hamilton has been praying for Ferrari's power unit following his failure in Mexico's final practice session. Meanwhile, Marc Marquez extended his MotoGP points lead in Malaysia by explaining his low-risk strategy for the upcoming sprint race.
