Tsunoda disagrees with stewards: "That's really ridiculous"

According to the stewards, Tsunoda was completely wrong and braked far too late. "He [Stroll] was not looking at all [at] the back mirror, he just drove a normal line. It was a risky move but I didn’t have any lock-up in the first but, then had a little bit of lock-up as I realised he was not looking at all."

The 21-year-old driver said: "It’s a shame, the move was there. A 10-second penalty is absolutely, I mean… okay, five-seconds [would] still be harsh but okay, but 10 seconds is really ridiculous for me. But it is what it is and I have to improve next time.”

In addition to the time penalty, Tsunoda was also credited with two points on his racing license. That now brings him to six points. A suspension follows if a driver manages to accumulate 12 penalty points within 12 months.
