Stewards' reasoning
Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team changed the bodywork specification of Stroll under Parc Ferme with the approval of the Technical Delegate, this not being in accordance with Article 40.3 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations. Also changes have been made to the set-up of the suspension, which is a breach of Article 40.9 and Stroll is required to start the Sprint from pit lane.
