PENALTIES
  • (5658): Adrian Faber vs Danny van der Niet - Avoidable contact - Racing Incident
    Danny was going too deep, and on most other occasions Adrian would have just tucked back underneath him. This time, there was a slight misjudgment and they made contact. Racing incident
  • (5659): Mike Bell vs Marcin Rybaczuk - Unsafe rejoin - Racing Incident
    Rybaczuks rejoin is out of his control. One can see that he tries to stay to the side of the track, but he just finds out that his steering is broken massively during the return. Had he known that his steering was that bend he would have taken avoiding action. Just unfortunate but not in control of Rybaczuk to know the extend of the damage after coming right out of the gravel onto the track
  • (5660): Adam Pinczes - Avoidable contact
    5-slots grid penalty for the next event
    1 license points docked
    Pinczes takes the inside curb too much, slightly launching his car, hitting and spinning Bell. He shouldnt have hit the kerb that he hit.
  • (5675): Dusko Avramovski - Punt
    10-slots grid penalty for the next event
    2 license points docked
    Avramovski already hits Ylitalo out of turn 4. He should have backed out of the move for the coming right corner as he was not far enough alongside but decides to keep the move going and hitting Ylitalo after the first apex on the rear, spinning him into the barrier.
  • (5685): Danny van der Niet - Avoidable contact - Warning
    Van der Niet moves under braking. It was not deemed to be much enough for a penalty, but a warning has been applied to make Van der Niet aware to not make such moves in the future
  • (5686): Jack Mayor vs Noah Chilla - Avoidable contact - Racing Incident
    Chillas car has a slight trajectory away from the curb, however this can be explained by either some wheelspin or just trying to avoid the curb on the outside. Mayor cuts it really close, only giving the absolute space needed,which was absolutely fair, but it meant there was no avoiding such thing in case not everything goes perfect. Racing incident
  • (5693): Disciplinary Committee vs Marc Veit - Avoidable contact - Racing Incident
    With all the chaos on lap 1 due to multiple cars going slow without front wing, especially in that area, the whole situation was really hard to manage. As a reesult, veit cannot be fully blamed for the incident
  • (5694): Danny van der Niet - Breach of Tyre Compound rules
    Disqualified from race
    2 license points docked
    Van der Niet qualifies on Super Soft tyres but starts the race on Ultra Soft tyres
  • (5692): Disciplinary Committee vs Matthew Clipp - Avoidable contact - Racing Incident
    The DC had a long discussion out of which Clipp was not deemed fully to blame. While Clipp could have backed out, there were more drivers taking risks in the appraoch and point of turning in. Therefore this report is deemed a racing incident
  • (5697): Disciplinary Committee vs Adam Pinczes - Avoidable contact - Racing Incident
    Pinczes loses control while on the kerb and astroturf. But he does not apply full trottle, trying to counter the loss of grip. This was deemed an unfortunate racing incident
  • (5697): Disciplinary Committee vs Adam Pinczes - Avoidable contact - Racing Incident
