The Anglo-Thai driver initially performed well, advancing to Q3 with his upgraded Williams FW46 before securing eighth place on the starting grid. Unfortunately, his car failed post-race scrutineering due to the “floor body” not meeting regulatory standards, leading to exclusion by the FIA Stewards. The Stewards’ investigation involved input from team representatives, FIA officials, and technical regulations to determine the infringement. This decision meant Albon’s disqualification and added to Williams’ woes following a crash by teammate Logan Sargeant in FP3. Consequently, Albon’s exclusion reshuffled the grid, benefiting drivers like Lance Stroll, Pierre Gasly, Carlos Sainz, and adjusting Lewis Hamilton’s starting position.
