Doc 18 - Infringement - Free Practice 1 Deleted Lap Times - Double Yellow Flags

2026 Miami Grand Prix

Summary

Lap times deleted for drivers who failed to slow under double yellow flags in FP1.

Explanation

During Free Practice 1, the lap times of Sergio Pérez (Cadillac), Oscar Piastri (McLaren), and Nico Hülkenberg (Audi) were deleted after they passed through a double waved yellow flag zone without sufficient reduction in speed. The decision was based on standard practice under such conditions, with reference to the Race Director’s Competition Notes (item 11), but no specific regulation was cited in the document. The Stewards reminded teams of their right to appeal, though no appeal-related regulations are included in the substantive breach assessment.
