Summary
Franco Colapinto received a 10-second time penalty and 1 penalty point for failing to reduce speed sufficiently in a single yellow flag sector during the Mexico City Grand Prix.
Explanation
The stewards determined that Franco Colapinto (Car 43) breached Article B1.8.4a of the FIA F1 Regulations by failing to make the required reduction in speed through a single yellow flag sector. Despite telemetry and photographic evidence from the driver and team, the stewards found insufficient speed reduction. A 10-second time penalty was imposed, along with 1 penalty point, bringing his 12-month total to 5. The stewards did not penalize him for a separate double yellow flag sector due to sufficient doubt about the warning provided.
