To The Team Manager, Scuderia Ferrari HP Document 81 Date 23 May 2026

Time 19:21 The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, summoned (documents 69 & 73) and heard from the drivers and team representatives, have considered the following matter and determine the following:

No / Driver 44 - Lewis Hamilton Competitor Scuderia Ferrari HP

Time 16:04

Session Qualifying Fact Car 44 allegedly impeded Car 10 on the approach to Turn 8. Infringement Alleged breach of Article B4.1.1 of the FIA F1 Regulations. Decision No further action.

Reason The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 44 (Lewis Hamilton), the driver of Car 10 (Pierre Gasly), team representatives and reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video, timing, telemetry, team radio and in-car video evidence. The driver of Car 44 explained that he was under the impression that Car 10 was not on a push lap, and his team confirmed that it had the same opinion. The driver and team representative of Car 10 stated they did not consider this to be a case of "unnecessary impeding". The Stewards therefore determined to take no further action. 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 5 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.
