Just another strange incident in the world of F1 took place on Sunday at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Esteban Ocon walked away with the victory, and Sebastian Vettel had second place locked up– until he didn't. In one of the most bizarre turn of events in F1 history, Vettel ended up losing his second-place finish after being unable to take the required fuel sample from his car after the race.

The disqualification ruined a somewhat perfect race from Vettel, and his crew chimed in after the race concluded.

“The 18 points loss is disappointing for the team, but it doesn't take away from an otherwise flawless drive from Sebastian.”

This has to be one of the strangest things to happen and Vettel went from second to nothing in a matter of a few minutes.

It was a wild race even from the beginning, and while Esteban Ocon won the F1 race on Sunday, it wasn't easy. But, Ocon walked away with the victory and was more than excited after the race.

“What a moment, what a moment,” Ocon said after the race. “It feels so good. It's the first victory obviously since the Renault group came back to Formula One….We had some difficult moments this season and we overcame them together with the team, came back to a fantastic pace in Silverstone.”

This race will be remembered as one of the wackiest in a long time.
