Summary
No further action for Isack Hadjar after exceeding the 1:39.0 time limit between Safety Car lines in Q1, as the stewards found he took appropriate steps to avoid impeding others.
Explanation
Isack Hadjar (Car 6) was investigated for exceeding the 1:39.0 time limit between Safety Car lines during Q1 (Lap 7, 16:18:10). The stewards reviewed marshalling, timing, and video data and found that although his lap time was above the limit, he had slowed appropriately to let other drivers pass without impeding them. Therefore, he was not driving 'unnecessarily slowly', and no further action was taken.
