Ahead of this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix, the FIA admitted to F1 teams that the controversial decision to not hand 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen a grid penalty for impeding in Sing👍apore was a mistake.

Both Verstappen and168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Logan Sargeant were afforded leniency as they escaped picking up the usual three-place grid penalty after being investigated for impeding in♑cidents during qua🃏lifying in Singapore. 

The stewards conceded in Japan that both Verstappen and Sargeant should have been punished with three-place grid drop🐼s but insisted the decisions will not be used as precedent when making calls in the future. 

When asked if he was pleased to have clarity on the matter, Hamilton r𝕴esponded: “Not really.

"How many years have we…. That rule h♌as been the same for ages, you know? I thin🦄k we need to start looking into AI for this sort of thing, so we get good decisions.”

The seven-time world champion added: “I would like to see whether 🧜AI could do a better job or 🧸not.”

Mercedes teammate and GPDA director168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: George Russell admitted the decision to let Verstappen off was “definitely a bit strange”.&nb💧sp;

"It was definitely a bit strange to see even Max goꦉt away with those reprimands last week," Russell said. 

"We obviously always look for consistency. We appreciate it's not easy in the best of times, but last week was obviously a bit of a slam dunk. So ജiꦛt was strange why it didn't happen.”

Ahead of the weekend, and prior to the stewards’ admission, McLaren’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris called for harsher penalties for blocking incidents, adding that “no one seems to 🦋care enough”.&🔯nbsp;
