At the end of the Canadian Grand Prix, the FIA analyzed several potentially sanctionable incidents: here are all the rulings and the resulting final outcome.
All decisions: the Canadian GP result revealed
Oliver Bearman was at risk for not following the race director’s instructions at Turn 14, rejoining the track in a potentially dangerous manner after running off. In his case, the stewards ruled that the correct decision was to issue a formal warning to the young talent from the Ferrari Driver Academy.
Esteban Ocon was under investigation for two incidents: for the first one, namely driving erratically in relation to Carlos Sainz, the FIA decided not to impose any penalty, stating that “he did not drive unnecessarily slowly.”
The second incident (that is, overtaking after the checkered flag when there was a yellow flag on the main straight) resulted in the same treatment as Kimi Antonelli, Oscar Piastri, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz, Pierre Gasly and Lance Stroll, who were all investigated for the same reason.
In all these cases, the stewards opted to issue a warning, as none of them “proceeded with caution.”
Subsequently, the FIA assessed the contact between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri – which led to the British driver’s retirement – and handed a 5-second penalty to driver number 4, considered “mainly at fault for the collision.” The reason no penalty was applied for the next GP is that Lando Norris, having completed 85% of the race distance, is classified.
Finally, regarding Red Bull’s protests over possible “erratic driving” by Russell and excessive distance from the Safety Car, both protests were respectively “rejected as unfounded and withdrawn.”
Therefore, the final result of the Canadian Grand Prix remains unchanged from what was shown at the checkered flag. Official documents follow.
