From The Stewards

To The Team Manager, Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Document 41 Date 08 July 2023

Time 17:58 The Stewards, having received a report from the Technical Delegate (document 36), summoned (document 39) and heard from the team representative, have considered the following matter and determine the following:

No / Driver 77 - Valtteri Bottas Competitor Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake

Time 16:59

Session Qualifying Fact A 1.0 litre sample of fuel could not be provided. Infringement Breach of Article 6.5.2 of the FIA Formula One Technical Regulations. Decision Disqualification from the Qualifying Session

Reason The Stewards heard from the team representative of Car 77 (Valtteri Bottas). The car was unable to provide the required fuel sample. There were no mitigating circumstances. The Stewards have received a request from Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake to allow Car 77 to start the race. The Stewards therefore grant permission for Car 77, Valtteri Bottas to start the race. 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.

Decisions of the Stewards are taken independently of the FIA and are based solely on the relevant regulations, guidelines and evidence presented.
