Driver: Bottas

Summary

Valtteri Bottas required to start Sprint from pit lane due to unauthorized car setup changes under Parc Ferme.

Explanation

Car 77, driven by Valtteri Bottas for Cadillac Formula 1 Team, had its setup altered during Parc Ferme conditions without Technical Delegate approval, violating B3.5.3. As a consequence, the Stewards enforced a decision under B3.5.3b, requiring the car to start the Sprint from the pit lane. This ensures compliance with FIA F1 Regulations during controlled technical periods.
