Stewards' reasoning
The Stewards heard from the driver of Hamilton (Lewis Hamilton), the driver of Stroll (Lance Stroll) and team representatives and examined video evidence. Due to the presence of multiple cars converging on the final corners, all of which impacted the situation, the Stewards consider that Hamilton did not unnecessarily impede Stroll and take no further action.
