Racing Bulls has been handed a part-suspended fine for an unusual infringement in F1 Canadian Grand Prix practice.
Racing Bulls has been fined for a part-suspended amount due to the discovery of a serious issue with Liam Lawson’s F1 car during the Canadian Grand Prix practice session. The red flag was brought out because the marshals couldn’t move Lawson’s car, which had a fault in the Clutch Disengagement System. The CDS is crucial for releasing the clutch and enabling the car’s wheels to turn during a recovery. Racing Bulls had received prior warnings about their CDS system from stewards. The fine imposed on the team is €30,000, with two-thirds suspended for a year pending no further breaches. This incident highlights the importance of correct functioning CDS systems in F1 cars to ensure smoother operations during red flag situations.
