Summary
Lance Stroll is required to start the United States Grand Prix from the pit lane after changes made under parc fermé and the use of additional power unit elements without approval.
Explanation
The stewards determined that Lance Stroll (Car 18) must start the race from the pit lane due to multiple infringements. These include changing the suspension setup under parc fermé conditions, replacing several power unit elements (ICE, TC, ES, CE, ANC) without the approval of the Technical Delegate, and continuing to work on the car beyond the allowed time. The accumulated 25-place grid penalty for the additional power unit elements, combined with the parc fermé breaches, mandated a pit lane start per Article B3.5.3a of the F1 Sporting Regulations.
