Clash of Titans: Verstappen vs. Hamilton in Mexico Sees No Penalties

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Six drivers were called to see the stewards for infringements in Mexico City Grand Prix qualifying – with the verdicts now in.

After investigating alleged rules breaches by several Formula 1 drivers in the Mexico City Grand Prix qualifying, the stewards have decided that no further action will be taken against George Russell, Max Verstappen, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, Logan Sargeant, and Yuki Tsunoda. The drivers were called to the stewards for potential breaches of Article 37.5 of the Sporting Regulations regarding impeding other cars in the pit-exit during Q1. However, it was determined that the drivers backing up was a result of the minimum lap-time introduced by the race director, Niels Wittich, and the contradictory requirements drivers face. Despite this, a solution to the pit-exit problem is considered desirable. On a separate note, Hamilton was cleared of yellow flag infringements as it was found that he had slowed down in the mini-sector and the light panel was blank over two pulses of a yellow flag. Zhou Guanyu’s Alfa Romeo was fined €500 for speeding in the pit-lane, while Sargeant and Williams received significant penalties for their rule breaches.
