The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix F1 stewards have explained why 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris escaped punishment for jumping the start.

Onboard footage from Norris’ car clearly showed ﷽the Briton jolting forward in his grid spot, and quickly stopping again, before the lights went out to signal the start of the race.

The incident was immediately reported over team radio by Mercedes driver 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell, who started a▨longside his fellow countryman in seventh.

It was investigated by the s𝓡tewards, who ultimately cleared Norris because the FI🎃A’s standardised data transponder had not been set off.

"The stewards reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video and determined that the vi✨deo appeared to show that car 4 moved before the start signal was given," the stewards said.

"However, the FIA approved and supplied transponder fitte🤪d on the car did not indicate a jump start.

"Article 48.1 a) of the Formula One Sporting Regulations states clearly that the judgme💃nt of whether or not there was a jump start is to be made in accordance with the transponder, which did not show a jump start. In the circumstances, we took no further action.”

Norris admitted he “didn’t know what happened” because it “happened sౠo quickly”.

"I j✤ust went a little bit and then tried stopping again, and then went again. But overall, I lost. I didn't gain anyth🍌ing from it,” he told Sky.

Sky F1 pundit Anthony Davidson an📖alysed the incident after the race and revealed that McLaren would have successfully overturned any penalty via appeal had punishment been handed out.

“There will probably be lots of questions regarding this potential jump start from Lando Norris. It was som❀ething that we all saw and something that he definitely felt,” Davidson explained.

“The lights are on, the car clearly moves, he stops and then he gets going again. So why didn’t he get a penalt🃏y?

“Well, on the circuit, on each grid box there is a sensor. Now it appears that the sensor wasn’t working. It didn’t detect the car🅰 moving. It’s an automated system and it didn’t detect that the car had moved.

“So, the stewards, although they can see that it is a potential jump start, or was a jump start, the human eye can detect it, the sensor didn’t actually pick it up. So that’s the first bꦡit of luck.

“Second, there’s a bit of a loophole in the regulation. If they were given a penalty, it turn༺s out that if the team appealed it, they would win the appeal because the sensor can’t detect the car moving.

“So that’s why, Lando Norris, we believﷺe didn’t get a penalty for this actual jump start. Computer said no.”

It is not the first🐓 time a driver has been l𝐆et off for a jump start.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Valtteri Bottas escaped a penalty for a jump start at the 2020 Hungarian Grand Prix, while 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sebastian Vettel was also cleared in Japan a year earlier.
