Published
An official FIA stewards' document from the 2026 Belgian Grand Prix.
OutcomeDrop of 30 grid positions for the next race. (Subject to Hadjar being classified in the results of qualifying, Hadjar will be allocated a grid position in the race of the FIA F1 Regulations)
- Driver
- Hadjar
- What happened
- The following Power Unit elements have been used: 5th Engine (ICE) 5th Turbocharger (TC) 5th Exhaust Set (EXH)
- Regulation cited
- Art. B8.2.2, Art. B8.2.3, Art. B2.5.4b.iv, Art. B8.2.8
- Stewards' reasoning
- The penalty is imposed in accordance with Article B8.2.8 of the FIA F1 Regulations. The use of each additional element in this case carries a 10 grid place penalty. Therefore there is an accumulation of 30 places.
