Stewards' reasoning
The Stewards reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video, timing, telemetry, and in-car video evidence. No yellow flag and no steering wheel light was visible to the driver through the yellow flag sector. A green light panel was visible as the car neared the end of the sector and the telemetry demonstrated that the driver did make a reduction in throttle.
