Stewards' reasoning
The Stewards reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video, team radio and in-car video evidence. Coming into Turn 6, notwithstanding that Pérez was alongside Norris, the driver of Pérez dived in late, missed the apex of the corner and understeered towards the outside of the corner colliding with Norris.
