Session Qualifying Fact Alleged Unsafe release of Car 6.

Offence Alleged breach of Article 28.13 (a) of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations. Decision No Further Action. Reason The Stewards reviewed multiple angles of video evidence, telemetry of car 33 and heard from the team representatives of Williams Racing and Aston Martin Red Bull Racing. Whilst Car 33 had to brake when Car 6 entered the fast lane, we have determined that the release was not unsafe. In evidence, the team representative of Car 33 agreed. 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.
