The FIA imposed 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 take effect at his next race. He secured eighth place.
Hadjar logged an eighth‑place lap but said the car was not comfortable during the session. He said to the media the car was not steady. Media outlets PlanetF1, Formula 1 and DIVEBOMB Motorsport reported his struggles. They noted his pace was below what he expected. The sanction stands, and he will line up at the rear for the next race.
