Date 30 July 2022 Time 19:08 2022 HUNGARIAN GRAND PRIX 28 - 31 July 2022 The Stewards The Stewards, having received a report from the Technical Delegate (document 26), summoned (document 27) and heard from the team representative, have considered the following matter and determine the following:

No / Driver 23 - Alexander Albon Competitor Williams Racing

Time 17:33

Session Qualifying Fact Car 23 used a tyre set in Q1 which had been electronically returned. Offence Breach of Article 30.4 b) read with 30.5 i) v) of the FIA Formula One Sporting

Regulations.

Decision The competitor (Williams F1 Team) is fined €1,000. Reason The Stewards heard from the team representative of Car 23 (Alexander Albon) and the Technical Delegate and determined that due to an administrative lapse, the team had incorrectly indicated the reference number of the set of tyres that they were returning to the tyre manufacturer, within the time specified in the regulations. The Technical Delegate confirmed that this was likely to have been an administrative error on the part of the team as a set of unused physical tyres were returned within time, per the regulations. As this was nevertheless a technical breach of the regulations, we imposed a fine of €1,000 on the team. 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.
