Lewis Hamilton will start the Italian GP from at best sixth-place, but only if he claims pole at Monza.
Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur highlighted the subjective nature of Lewis Hamilton’s grid penalty for not slowing down sufficiently under yellow flags in Zandvoort for the Italian Grand Prix. Vasseur noted that the penalty was based on opinion rather than a clear-cut rule. Despite Hamilton’s actions at the final corner, the stewards deemed that he had made an effort to reduce speed, leading to a lesser penalty. Vasseur refrained from expressing frustration but acknowledged that different stewards could have reached a different conclusion, given the subjectivity of the matter. Vasseur emphasized the importance of focusing on the upcoming race in Monza rather than dwelling on the penalty decision and the various interpretations surrounding it.
