Overview
- Kimi Antonelli receives an official reprimand for a qualifying yellow-flag overtake but retains fourth on the Baku grid.
- Officials said his dash briefly displayed a yellow that then cleared, he passed two cars, and his team instructed him to abandon the lap.
- The hearing drew on positioning and marshalling system data along with video, timing, telemetry and in-car footage.
- Nico Hulkenberg was investigated over a separate alleged yellow-flag pass after FP3 and faced no further action due to mitigating circumstances.
- Both decisions preserve the Azerbaijan Grand Prix starting order and reflect reduced sanctions applied in similar cases earlier this season.
