Williams is seeking clarification over Carlos Sainz’s penalty at the Dutch Grand Prix last weekend.
The Williams F1 team has initiated a right of review into Carlos Sainz’s penalty from the Dutch Grand Prix last Sunday, where he was penalized with a 10-second penalty for an incident with Liam Lawson at Turn 1 after a safety car restart. Despite Sainz attempting to overtake Lawson on the outside, the stewards deemed him at fault for the collision and added two penalty points to his super licence. Williams is now seeking clarification from the FIA regarding the penalty and aims for a positive resolution to better understand racing protocols moving forward. In order to proceed with the right of review, Williams must present new and significant evidence that was previously unavailable during the initial decision, and a stewards’ hearing will determine the relevance of the new information presented. If the stewards deem the new evidence substantial, a second hearing will be held to delve deeper into the case.
