Technical Delegate's Report
The gearbox of car number 22, driver Yuki Tsunoda, was replaced for a new one.
The gearbox has been replaced with the approval of the FIA technical delegate following a written request from the team concerned (requested on 19/06/2021 at 17:20), this being in accordance with Article 34.2 of the 2021 Formula One Sporting Regulations.
The gearbox change was before the six consecutive Events expired. Therefore this is not in compliance with Article 23.5a of the 2021 Formula One Sporting Regulations and I am referring this matter to the stewards for their consideration.
The following part has been replaced during the Parc Fermé yesterday and today by the AlphaTauri Honda team for a part of a different specification:
Car 22: Floor
The part has been replaced with the approval of the FIA technical delegate following a written request from the team concerned, this being in accordance with Article 34.2 of the 2021 Formula One Sporting Regulations. But as the above part is different from the one originally used and also changes have been made to the set up of the suspension (with the approval of the FIA technical delegate following a written request), car number 22 should now be required to start from the pit lane according to Article 34.6 of the 2021 Formula One Sporting Regulations.
