Daniel Abt feels that Nicolas Prost should have been more aware of where the German driver was as they entered turn two.

The Audi Sport ABT driver was hit by Nico Prost on the exit of turn two which sent the 22-year old into the wall and consequently causing the horrific turn two crash.

Abt feels that Prost should have left more room for him as the drivers knew that this was a very tight corner and it would be hard for two cars to fit on this straight.

“We were all virtually in a straight line, but Prost decided to take the outside line and tried to drive around me. When we got onto the racing line he just didn’t see me, so he didn’t leave me any space and he hit me and sent me into the wall,” said Abt.

Abt is also grateful that nobody got hurt in this accident and he went to see Bruno Senna straight after the crash to see if he was alright. The Brazilian driver leapfrogged over the back of Abt’s car, but the drivers were not too concerned about this corner before the race.

“We have had tricky corners before and it is always tight and we all know that, but as a driver you need to pay more attention to these details. In that corner, I went off the throttle to avoid the contact, but it was way too late by then,” said Abt.

Daniel Abt struggled a little in Practice in qualifying, but the German driver was trying out new setups so he knew he would be off the pace.

“We tried a few new things in practice One. So I expected to be off the pace. In practice two I was held up on my quick lap so that’s why I struggled but I was happy with my qualifying,” said Abt

Despite not much positives to take from this race, the 22-year old is looking forward to his home race in Berlin in two weeks time.

“I have a home coming up. There is a lot of tension building up and I’m really looking forward to it is going to be very special for me,” said the German driver
