Yuki Tsunoda is going through the FIA race stewards as they examine the Japanese driver’s restart on the Formulation 1 Italian Grand Prix.
On the lap 6 restart, which adopted a pink flag for Charles Leclerc’s accident on lap 2, Tsunoda appeared to park out of his grid field as he took up his 14th place on the beginning grid.
Race management swiftly reported a possible situation, however the stewards opted to revisit the case after the race, with Tsunoda and his Racing Bulls staff summoned to the stewards’ workplace for an “alleged breach of Article B5.9.4 of the FIA F1 Rules – Begin Process infringement at 15:41.”
Tsunoda loved a robust afternoon at Monza’s high-speed venue as he collected his first level of the marketing campaign in his second grand prix outing, ending tenth as his Racing Bulls team-mate Arvid Lindblad grabbed eighth following a protracted slipstreaming battle in F1’s midfield.
Having misplaced his common seat on the finish of final season, Tsunoda turned Purple Bull’s reserve driver and returned to his former staff Racing Bulls deputising for Liam Lawson, who changed the injured Isack Hadjar at Purple Bull Racing.
“I used to be a bit confused beginning between 14 and 15,” Tsunoda defined. “For my part, I did not actually achieve the place earlier than the pink flag. I believed I used to be fifteenth.
“However a minimum of I parked behind the field, fairly far, so I do not assume I gained any benefit for that. So let’s examine. I hope every part is okay.”
