After a Sunday divided between rain, slicks, intermediates and retreats, the Singapore Grand Prix officially concludes. Indeed, it has arrived FIA decision on the situation linked to Sergio Perez.
Perez wins on the track, even if…
Il Singapore GP ended with the victory of Perez who finished in first place ahead of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. However, the last word is not said, as the Mexican he was summoned by the marshals for having taken too much distance from the two safety cars present on the track during the race. Based on the precedents, the most recent by Giovinazzi in 2020, the Mexican should have suffered a ten-second penalty, divided into two by five.
The decision of the FIA
After meeting the pilot, the official decision came. The stewards decided to fine the driver of the Red Bull for violation of the regulation in the first Safety regime and to penalize him by a good 5 seconds with the removal of two points from the licence, for violating article 55.10 of the sporting regulations for the second time. Perez therefore remains the winner of the Singapore Grand Prix, followed by the two Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. The Mexican therefore returns to the success that was missing from the Monte Carlo race, in which he always finished ahead of the Ferrari of Carlos Sainz and his teammate Verstappen who had an absolutely not easy race today.
