FIA deliver verdict on Lance Stroll after his apology for shoving controversy

The Aston Martin driver barged Henry Howe in his team garage out of frustrat﷽ion after being eliminated from Q꧒1 last Friday in Qatar.
Stroll then delivered a six-wo⛦rd awkward TV interview, responding to three q꧅uestions, before the FIA opened an investigation into his conduct.
The governing body haꦅs now confirmed: “We can confirm that the FIA Compliance Officer𒁃 has received an apology from Lance Stroll regarding his actions during the 2023 FIA Formula 1 Qatar Grand Prix.
“The Compliance Officer has noted this apology and issued a written warning, reminding Lance of his resp🐼onsibilities as a competitor bound by the FIA C🌌ode of Ethics and other FIA ethical and conduct guidelines set forth by the sporting regulations.
“The FI🐓A maintains a zero-tolerance stance against misconduct and condemns any actions that may lead to physical harassment.”
