The FIA handed driver Isack Hadjar a penalty for a breach in Austrian Grand Prix qualifying. Officials said they reviewed the evidence and that several factors delayed the ruling. The penalty will be served at his next race. He posted eighth place.
Hadjar logged an eighth‑place lap but said the car was not comfortable during the session. He told reporters the car was unstable. Media outlets PlanetF1, Formula 1 and DIVEBOMB Motorsport covered his difficulties. They noted his pace didn't meet his expectations. The ruling holds, and he will begin the upcoming race from the rear of the grid.
