Overview

• Jack Doohan received a reprimand from Formula 1 stewards after crossing the pit-entry white line twice during the final practice session in Jeddah.
• The first infraction earned Doohan a warning, while the second breach led to the stricter penalty of a reprimand, as outlined in FIA regulations.
• Race director Rui Marques had explicitly prohibited crossing the pit-entry white line in pre-event notes shared with teams before the weekend.
• Fellow rookie Liam Lawson received an identical reprimand on Friday for similar violations during practice, setting a precedent for Doohan's penalty.
• Doohan called the incidents 'embarrassing' and attributed them to 'fighting gremlins' and technical anomalies, which he worked to overcome during practice.
