Date 17 April 2021 Time 12:53 2021 EMILIA ROMAGNA GRAND PRIX 15 - 18 April 2021 The Stewards The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, have considered the following matter and determine the following:

No / Driver 10 - Pierre Gasly Competitor Scuderia AlphaTauri Honda

Time 11:25

Session Practice 3 Fact Alleged Overtaking under a Red flag. Offence Alleged breach of International Sporting Code Appendix L Ch IV Art 1 and Appendix H

2.5.4.1.b.

Decision No further action.

Reason The Stewards having reviewed positioning data, marshalling system data, team radio and in-car and CCTV video. At the moment the red flag was instigated Car 10, Pierre Gasly, was approaching marshalling panel 5. While the marshalling system indicates that the panel illuminated, video evidence shows that it did not illuminate until Gasly was past the panel. Gasly was on a fast lap, while Antonio Giovinazzi was on an out lap and driving slowly. There was no visible indication to either driver that there was a problem on track ahead of them. Gasly passed Giovinazzi a short distance past marshalling panel 5. As the pass was completed, marshalling panel 6 became visible to the two cars, Gasly's dash showed the red flag status and the team radioed simultaneously. Gasly immediately slowed in an appropriate manner and proceeded safely. The Stewards therefore take no further action. 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 10.1.1 of the FIA Judicial and Disciplinary Rules, within the applicable time

limits. Tim Mayer Silvia Bellot
