Doc 32 - Decision - Car 30 - Alleged leaving the pitlane after the end of the session

2026 MONACO GRAND PRIX 07 - 09 June 2026 From The Stewards To The Team Manager, Visa Cash App Racing Bulls F1 Team Document 32 Date 05 June 2026 Time 16:41 The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, have considered the following matter and determine the following: No / Driver 30 - Liam Lawson Competitor Visa Cash App Racing Bulls F1 Team Time 14:30 Session Free Practice 1 Fact Car 30 left the pit lane when the light at the end of the pit lane was red. Infringement Breach of Article B1.6.3e of the FIA F1 Regulations. Decision No penalty is applied. Reason The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 30, team representatives and reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video, timing, team radio and in-car video evidence. The driver was warned he had 7 seconds left when he left the garage. He then travelled down the pit lane, and the green light changed to red when he was approximately 0.8 seconds from crossing the pit lane exit. He then reported over the team radio that he had been focusing on the countdown clock which is located above the pit exit, which still showed two seconds remaining before the light turned red. The Stewards note that this countdown clock is not official and does not override the red light at the pit exit. There is no official synchronization between the countdown clock and red light at pit exit. The Stewards also note that considering the driver had less than a second to react, had he tried to stop he might have ended up coming to a halt on a live track. In view of the above mitigating circumstances, no penalty will be imposed. Competitors are reminded that they have the right to appeal certain decisions of the Stewards, in accordance with Article 15 of the FIA International Sporting Code and Chapter 5 of the FIA Judicial and Disciplinary Rules, within the applicable time limits. Decisions of the Stewards are taken independently of the FIA and are based solely on the relevant regulations, guidelines and evidence presented.
