- Stewards' reasoning
- The Stewards heard from the driver of Stroll (Lance Stroll), the driver of Alonso (Fernando Alonso), and team representatives and have reviewed video evidence. It was clear to us that the driver of Stroll made a late move in reacting to the overtaking attempt by the driver of Alonso by moving to the left. The stewards determine that the driver of Stroll was predominantly to blame.
