Time 23:57 2019 SINGAPORE GRAND PRIX 19 - 22 September 2019 The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, summoned (document 41) and heard from the driver and team representative, have considered the following matter and determine the following:

No / Driver 99 - Antonio Giovinazzi Competitor Alfa Romeo Racing Time 21:24

Session Race

Fact Incident in turn 8. Offence Breach of Article 12.1.1.h and 12.1.1.i of the FIA International Sporting Code. Decision Ten Second time Penalty imposed after the race in accordance with Article 38.3 d)  of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations. (10 seconds added to elapsed race time). Reason The Stewards reviewed video evidence, heard from the driver of car 99 (Antonio Giovinazzi) and team representative. The Race Director had instructed all cars to stay to the right at the incident at Turn 8, because of the crane and marshals working the crash at that location. There was a double waved yellow before the incident. While the Stewards accepted the explanation of the driver that he felt he was going sufficiently slowly, and while he was driving to his SC delta time, he did however end up driving closer to the crane and marshalls than was felt safe by either the marshalls on location or the Race Director. The Stewards concur. The driver had been told of the location of the incident and to stay right, but may not have considered that the crane was moving. The Stewards consider this to be a potentially seriously dangerous situation and a risk to the marshals, and order a ten second penalty. 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.
