Colapinto will lose one place at the start

      Franco Colapinto's debut weekend with Alpine turned out to be a difficult one. He received a fine for speeding in the pit lane, crashed the car in qualifying, and along the way violated the instructions of the race director.

      The essence of the violation is that in the red flag stop mode, Colapinto entered the fast lane before confirming the start time of the session, without following the instructions of the race director.

      The team explained this by saying that the rider misunderstood the engineer's instructions, and then it was too late to change anything. The team representative and the driver apologized for the unintentional violation, and the stewards concluded that it did not lead to an advantage, so they limited themselves to a fine with the loss of one position at the start of the race.
