To The Team Manager, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team Document 63 Date 30 June 2024

Time 15:25 The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, have considered the following matter and determine the following:

No / Driver 44 - Lewis Hamilton Competitor Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team

Time 15:03

Session Race Fact Alleged leaving the track and gaining an advantage in turn 1. Infringement Alleged breach of Appendix L Chapter IV Article 2 c) of the FIA International Sporting Code and Article 33.3 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations.

Decision No further action. Reason The Stewards reviewed video and timing evidence. Car 44 left the track at the exit of turn 1 while being alongside Car 55, gained momentum off track and ended up in front of Car 55 on the approach to turn 3, thereby gaining an advantage. However, the driver gave back the position to Car 55 subsequently, therefore no further action is taken as no lasting advantage was gained. 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.
