The points allocation from Saturday's Sprint race at Silverstone may be revised, as stewards probe a late-race incident that left Isack Hadjar furious. The French driver, running in ninth place and pushing for a points-scoring overtake, was forced to brake hard to avoid a collision when Liam Lawson cut across his path.
Incident Details
Hadjar had initiated a move up the inside, but Lawson closed the door suddenly under braking. Over the radio, Hadjar exclaimed: "Man, that was crazy!" adding, "[Lawson] moved so hard under braking." Replays confirmed the close call. The stewards are now reviewing whether to take action, which could strip Lawson of his points finish.
Potential Impact
If Lawson is penalized, the Sprint race classification would change, affecting the points awarded. Kimi Antonelli won the Sprint from Lewis Hamilton, with Lando Norris third. Any alteration could reshuffle the lower points positions, impacting the championship standings.
