Carlos Sainz will lose five places on the grid in Mexico.

      The stewards of the United States Grand Prix reviewed the collision between Carlos Sainz and Kimi Antonelli at Turn 15 on lap six of the race. As a result of the incident, Kimi fell back to the end of the field and Carlos retired from the race.

      After considering the circumstances and hearing from the drivers, the stewards found Carlos Sainz to be at fault for the collision.

      The stewards' decision reads as follows: “The driver of car No.55 stated that he had expected the driver of car No.12 to leave him room at the apex of the corner, but the driver of car No.12 turned in earlier, and the driver of car No.55 locked his brakes when it became clear that contact was inevitable.

      He suggested that the driver of car No.12 should have anticipated the overtaking attempt and left him space to avoid contact. However, at no point before the apex was the front axle of car No.55 alongside or ahead of the rear-view mirror of car No.12. Therefore, according to the Guidance on Driving Standards, the driver of car No.55 was not entitled to be given room at the apex of the corner.”

      As a penalty, Carlos Sainz will lose five places on the grid for the Mexican Grand Prix. In addition, the Williams driver was given two penalty points, bringing his total to four within a 12-month period.
