- Stewards' reasoning
- The Stewards reviewed multiple angles of video evidence. Perez skidded off the track in the wet conditions during the safety car period. Upon rejoining the track, he then passed the two cars that had proceeded on the track past the point of his incident, which he was not entitled to do under Art 39.8
