JAKARTA - Charles Leclerc, Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton became the podium winners of the Austrian Grand Prix (GP), Sunday, July 10, 2022. Leclerc came out as the winner, while Verstappen and Hamilton finished second and third.

However, the three of them had bad luck. They were fined 10 thousand euros or IDR 150 million.

Quoted from Reuters, the three were fined for violating post-race procedures. After the three drivers celebrated on the podium, the race supervisor or steward called the representatives of the Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes teams.

This follows a report from the race director who said there was video footage showing the assistants and/or physiotherapists of the drivers entering the parc ferme without permission.

Whereas the area is a closed area in the pit lane, where this action clearly violates the procedures that have been applied.

The same source reports that the strict ban on access to parc feme is to ensure that nothing is given to drivers before they are weighed. Steward said the fine was deferred for the remainder of the season.

Regarding this violation, not only fines were imposed, but the stewards also warned the drivers that the individual concerned could have his/her pass revoked if there was a systemic violation.
