No / Driver 23 - Alexander Albon Competitor Aston Martin Red Bull Racing

Time 15:24

Session Race Fact Car 23 left the track into turn 5 and gained a lasting advantage. Offence Breach of Article 27.3 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations.

Decision 5 Seconds Time Penalty (1 point awarded, 1 point in total for the 12 month period) Reason The stewards reviewed video evidence and determined that Car 23 left the track into turn 5 and rejoined gaining a lasting advantage. We note the Race Director advised the team that he would authorise the driver giving back the place however the team declined on the basis that it believed that Car 23 had been forced off the track. Nevertheless, the Stewards believe that the actions of the driver of Car 20 were consistent with the current approach to driving standards ("let them race"). Competitors are reminded that they have the right to appeal certain decisions of the Stewards, in accordance with Article 15 of the FIA International Sporting Code and Article 9.1.1 of the FIA Judicial and Disciplinary Rules, within the applicable time limits.
