The FIA imposed driver Isack Hadjar the sanction for a breach in Austrian Grand Prix qualifying. Officials said they reviewed the evidence and that a few factors delayed the ruling. The penalty will be applied at his next race. He posted eighth place.
Hadjar had set an eighth‑place lap but said the car was uneasy during the session. He said to the media the car was unstable. News sources PlanetF1, Formula 1 and DIVEBOMB Motorsport documented his problems. They noted his pace didn't meet his expectations. The ruling holds, and he will start the next event from the back of the grid.
