It continues to rain in the wet at McLaren. There are problems with the car, but the improvements are also noticeable. In Saudi Arabia Lando Norris finished in eleventh position, accompanied by his teammate Ricciardo. The umpteenth problem concerns the Australian driver who received three penalty positions from the marshals. The reason is for obstructing Esteban Ocon's Alpine during his lap in Q2.
The number three on the track confirmed to the stewards that he hadn't noticed the Frenchman arriving behind him, ruining his fast lap. He didn't end there, in fact he also received a $10.000 reprimand for not having warned his driver of Ocon's arrival at turns 11-12. Ricciardo will therefore start from twelfth, but fourteenth, replacing Mick Schumacher who, for obvious reasons, will not take part in the Saudi Grand Prix.
