Overview

  • Jack Doohan was reprimanded after crossing the pit entry white line twice during final practice at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Jeddah.
  • The FIA stewards issued a warning for Doohan's first infringement but escalated to a reprimand after a second violation despite a team warning.
  • The breaches violated pre-event notes explicitly prohibiting any part of a tyre from crossing the white line in any direction.
  • Liam Lawson, another rookie driver, received the same warning-reprimand penalty for two similar infractions during an earlier practice session.
  • Reprimands are among the lightest penalties in Formula 1, but accumulating four over a season can lead to grid penalties or harsher sanctions.
