The FIA handed driver Isack Hadjar the sanction for a breach in Austrian Grand Prix qualifying. Officials said they looked at the evidence and that a few factors delayed the ruling. The penalty will take effect at his next race. He recorded eighth place.
Hadjar had set an eighth‑place lap but said the car was uneasy during the session. He stated to journalists the car was unstable. News sources PlanetF1, Formula 1 and DIVEBOMB Motorsport reported his struggles. They observed his pace fell short of his expectations. The penalty remains, and he will start the next event from the back of the grid.
