Session Race Fact Leaving the track and rejoining unsafely in T3. Infringement Breach of Appendix L, Chapter IV, Article 2 c) of the International Sporting Code. Decision Reprimand (Driving).

This is the driver's 1st reprimand of the season. Reason The Stewards reviewed video and in-car video evidence. Car 14 went off track in turn 2, continued on the run-off and rejoined at high speed right in front of Car 16. Although Car 16 did not have to take any evasive measures, the Stewards determine that given the speed and the angle in which Car 14 came back on track, he rejoined in an unsafe manner. 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.
