- Stewards' reasoning
- The Stewards heard from Antonelli (Kimi Antonelli), team representative and reviewed timing and in-car video evidence. Antonelli returned to the pits after setting his final lap time in Q3 without any other cars interfering and did not comply with the delta time requirements. The driver stated during the hearing that it was difficult for him to maintain the delta due to energy management requirements and minor technical issues. However, he admitted that he could have done more to comply with the delta time.
