To: The Team Manager, MoneyGram Haas F1 Team From: The Stewards Date: 07 September 2025 Time: 17:22

The Stewards have reviewed a report from the Race Director regarding an incident involving Car 87 (Oliver Bearman) during the Race session.

Incident Details

• No / Driver: 87 - Oliver Bearman
• Competitor: MoneyGram Haas F1 Team
• Time: 15:59
• Session: Race
• Fact: Car 87 collided with Car 55 at Turn 4.
• Infringement: Breach of Appendix L, Chapter IV, Article 2 d) of the FIA International Sporting Code.

Decision

• Penalty: 10 second time penalty.
• Penalty Points: 2 penalty points (total of 10 for the 12-month period).

Reason

The Stewards examined video and in-car video evidence. Car 55 attempted an overtake on the outside of Turn 4 and had its front axle ahead of Car 87's front axle at the apex, establishing its right to the racing line. The driver of Car 87 defended their position on the inside, failing to yield, which resulted in the collision. The Stewards determined that the driver of Car 87 was predominantly at fault, leading to the application of the standard penalty for such incidents.

Competitors are reminded of their right to appeal certain decisions of the Stewards, as per Article 15 of the FIA International Sporting Code and Chapter 4 of the FIA Judicial and Disciplinary Rules, within the stipulated time limits.
