To The Team Manager, Scuderia Ferrari HP Document 51 Date 03 May 2025

Time 15:53 The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, summoned (document 43) and heard from the driver and team representative, have considered the following matter and determine

the following:

No / Driver 16 - Charles Leclerc Competitor Scuderia Ferrari HP

Time 11:31

Session Reconnaissance Laps Fact Car 16 continued on track with significant and obvious damage Infringement Breach of Article 26.10 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations.

Decision Reprimand (Driving) This is the driver's first reprimand for the 2025 season. Reason The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 16 (Charles Leclerc), the team representative and reviewed video evidence. Car 16 hit the wall in Turn 10 and sustained significant damage. Nonetheless,  the driver continued on track (at a low speed) and only stopped before Turn 14, after being told to do so by the team. The Stewards note that incidents during the Reconnaissance Laps will be regarded in the same way as incidents during Free Practice and therefore a reprimand is considered appropriate. 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.
