'F1 stewards admitted Max Verstappen should’ve had F1 Singapore GP grid drops’
The Red Bull driver was controversially let off with reprimands only for two im﷽peding incidents that occurred during qualifying in Singapore.
Verstappen faced three separate impeding investigations following qualifying, including for blocking AlphaTauri’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Yuki Tsunoda and Williams’ 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Logan Sargeant, as well as for cau♒sing a queue at the end of the pit lane.
Sky F1 commentator David Croft revealed that one of the stewards had admitted that mistakes were made during a meeting with team bosses ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix on Thursꦬday.
"One of the stewards from the Singapore GP admitted, in a meeting with team managers at Su🌸zuka, that Verstappen should have had a grid drop for the Yuki impeding at least, and potentially a second drop for the pit lane incident,” Croft said during Sky’s coverage of second practice on Friday🍌.
Verstappen recovered to finish fif🧜th in Singapore after st༒arting 11th on the grid.
Had he received two standard three-pace grid penalties for his offences, Verstappen would instead have bꦓeen forced to start from 17✤th.
The decision by AlphaTauri - Rౠed Bull’s sister team - to miss the FIA stewards hearing for the Verstappen-Tsunoda incident raised eyebrows ꦅin the paddock and even started conspiracy theories among fans.
