Date 05 November 2021 Time 13:20 2021 MEXICAN GRAND PRIX 4 - 7 November 2021 The Stewards The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, summoned (document 10) and heard from the driver and team representative, have considered the following matter and determine
the following:
No / Driver 7 - Kimi Raikkonen Competitor Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN
Time 12:11
Session Practice 1 Fact Failed to follow the Race Director's Instruction. Offence Breach of Article 12.2.2.1.i) of the FIA International Sporting Code.
Decision Reprimand (Driving) (This is the driver's 1st reprimand of the season) Reason The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 7 (Kimi Raikkonen) and team representative. Car 7 left the track on the left-hand side between turns 1 and 2 and re-joined the track before turn 2 rather than re-joining by driving to the left-hand side of the bollard at turn 3. Whilst noting the driver's comments in relation to crossing the grass at this point, the Stewards consider this to be a failure to follow the Race Director's instruction given in article 21.1a) of the Race Director's Event Notes. 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.
