- Driver
- Albon · 3/12 penalty points (rolling 12 months)
- What happened
- Allegedly leaving the track without a justifiable reason multiple times in Turn 6.

- Track limits - every ruling & the going rate →Going rate across 179 rulings: Deleted lap ×126 · +5s ×25 · No action ×13
- Regulation cited
- Art. 2, Art. 33.3 · driving standards (Appendix L)
- Stewards' reasoning
- The Stewards reviewed in-car video evidence. Based on the video footage available (which did not include CCTV), the Stewards determine, whilst there might be some indication for possible track limit infringements in Turn 6, the evidence at hand is not sufficient to accurately and consistently conclude that any breaches occurred and therefore take no further action.
