Oscar Piastri was investigated by the stewards for a potential yellow flag infringement during free practice at the Formula 1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix. He was found to have potentially ignored a yellow flag signal during FP2 and faced a nervous wait for the stewards’ final verdict. Ultimately, he escaped with a reprimand, marking his second of the season. Despite breaching the regulations, the penalty was reduced due to mitigating circumstances. Piastri’s reprimand added to a challenging day, which included a brush with the wall and struggling to match his teammate’s pace. McLaren, on the other hand, could secure the Constructors’ Championship if they outscore Ferrari by nine points this weekend.
