Australian GP: Perez Penalized, Drops Three Grid Positions
Haas F1 Team Nico Hulkenberg: Red Bull's Sergio Perez has been slapped with a three-place grid penalty after impeding Haas F1 Team Nico Hulkenberg during qualifying at the Australian Grand Prix on Saturday.
The incident occurred during Q1 when Hulkenberg encountered Perez on his flying lap, forcing the German to take evasive action to avoid a collision. Despite the stewards' review, it was determined that Red Bull failed to adequately warn Perez of Hulkenberg's presence in time, resulting in the penalty for the Mexican driver.
Originally qualifying in an impressive third position, Perez's grid penalty pushes him back to sixth, elevating drivers like Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc, and Oscar Piastri up a place on the grid.
