FactCar 44 allegedly impeded Car 10 on the approach to Turn 8.
DecisionNo further action.

Reason

The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 44 (Lewis Hamilton) and the driver of Car 10 (Pierre Gasly), along with team representatives. After reviewing positioning/marshalling system data, video, timing, telemetry, team radio, and in-car video evidence, the following was determined:

  • Driver's View: Lewis Hamilton explained he believed Car 10 was not on a push lap, and his team confirmed this opinion.
  • Competitor's View: The driver and team representative of Car 10 stated they did not consider this to be a case of "unnecessary impeding."

Based on this, the Stewards determined that no further action is required.
