Williams lodged a successful right of review into a penalty received by Carlos Sainz for an incident involving Liam Lawson.
James Vowles, the boss of Williams, believes that the team’s recent Right of Review process will provide clarity on the “murky and unclear” racing rules in Formula 1. Williams driver Carlos Sainz received a penalty in the Dutch GP for a collision with Liam Lawson, but after the team initiated a Right of Review before the Italian GP, the penalty was overturned as new evidence was deemed relevant and significant. Despite the outcome, Vowles highlighted the need for clearer racing and overtaking guidelines in F1 and praised the stewards for their difficult job in adjudicating live events. The goal is to ensure that decisions are made efficiently and effectively within the weekend to avoid confusion and improve the racing experience for all parties involved. Vowles emphasized the importance of constructive conversations with stewards to address the challenges of close competition and prevent future incidents.
