Throughout the race Lewis Hamilton had already obtained a five-seconds penalty for shifting too early at the beginning.

Throughout the race, the seven-time world champion had already obtained a five-second time penalty for shifting earlier than the beginning lights had gone out.

The stewards defined their resolution as follows: “The Stewards decided that after the third crimson mild was illuminated, and earlier than the beginning sign was given, Automobile 44 moved. This was clearly seen on the on-board footage by reference to the yellow Pirelli lettering on the tyre, which rotated upwards and forwards earlier than the lights have been extinguished.

“The truth that the motion was restricted doesn’t negate the infringement. Any such motion in that interval constitutes a false begin/shifting earlier than the beginning sign.

“The Stewards due to this fact discover that Automobile 44 was in breach of Article B5.11.1 of the FIA F1 Rules and impose the usual penalty for minor actions.”
