Azerbaijan FP1 cancelled after George Russell hits loose manhole cover

First practice for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix has been cancelled following an incident involving a loose manhole cover and George Russell's Williams.

The incident scattered debris over the circuit and forced a red flag, suspending the session.
