Scuderia Ferrari HP Document 60 Date 05 October 2025 Time 23:06

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 Scuderia Ferrari HP Time 21:41

Session Race

Fact Leaving the track without a justifiable reason, multiple times. Infringement Breach of Article 33.3 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations and Article 12.2.1 i) of the International Sporting Code - Non-compliance with Race Director's Event Note (item 21.1, document 13). Decision 5 second time penalty. (5 seconds added to elapsed Race time).

Reason The Stewards heard from the team representative and the driver, reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video, team radio and in-car video evidence. During the hearing, the driver confirmed that he left the track at several occasions. He was trying to manage a brakes issue situation. This being said, after further investigation, and in accordance with the list of exemptions foreseen in the Driving Standards Guidelines, the Stewards considered that this was not a justifiable reason and apply the usual penalty for such type of infringement. This was not contested by the team representative nor the driver. 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.
