Note:

penalties for exceeding track limits.
4 – Albon received two five-second time penalties for exceeding

erroneously started from the twelfth place grid slot which had
been left vacant by Carlos Sainz Jr. being unable to start.
He received a ten-second time penalty for the infraction.
6 – Pérez qualified thirteenth, but he was required to start the
race from the back of the grid for exceeding his quota of
power unit elements. He was then required to start the race
from the pit lane as the new elements of different specification
from the ones originally used were installed on his car during parc
fermé conditions without the approval of the technical delegate and
for the new chassis being considered a new car entered for him.
7 – Leclerc finished seventh on track, but he received a
post-sprint five-second time penalty for exceeding
track limits.
8 – Stroll finished thirteenth on track, but he received a
post-sprint five-second time penalty for exceeding
track limits.

discretion.
