2018 AZERBAIJAN GRAND PRIX 26 - 29 April 2018

Technical Delegate's Report

After the third free practice session today the gearbox of car number 27, driver Niko Hülkenberg, was replaced for a new one.

This gearbox change was before the six consecutive Events expired. Therefore this is not in compliance with Article 23.5a of the 2018 Formula One Sporting Regulations and I am referring this matter to the stewards for their consideration.

The team informed the technical delegate about the gearbox change on 28 April 2018, at 15:01 hours.

The FIA Formula One Technical Delegate Jo Bauer
