The FIA handed driver Isack Hadjar the sanction for a breach in Austrian Grand Prix qualifying. Officials said they reviewed the evidence and that some factors delayed the ruling. The penalty will be applied at his next race. He recorded eighth place.
Hadjar had set an eighth‑place lap but said the car was not comfortable during the session. He said to the media the car was unstable. News sources PlanetF1, Formula 1 and DIVEBOMB Motorsport reported his struggles. They observed his pace was below what he expected. The sanction stands, and he will start the next event from the back of the grid.
