Session Race Fact Not respecting yellow flags in turns 8/9/10. Offence Breach of Appendix H Article 2.5.5. b) of the FIA International Sporting Code.
Decision Penalty of a Warning Reason The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 18 (Lance Stroll), team representative and reviewed video and telemetry evidence. Although the marshalling system was not showing yellows, the marshals were showing yellow flags from the entry to Turn 8 to the exit of Turn 10. There was one flag point that was not easily visible to the drivers that was showing a double yellow, however this was parallel to an easily visible flag point that was showing a single yellow. The Stewards were able to determine that the driver slowed as required in the regulation, however could have done so earlier. The Stewards therefore issue a warning. 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 Chapter 4 of the FIA Judicial and Disciplinary Rules, within the applicable time limits.
