The FIA stewards have delivered a verdict on Lando Norris. The McLaren driver is allowed to keep his pole position for the sprint race in Brazil, but will receive a reprimand.

Stewards pass judgement on Norris

George Russell, Oscar Piastri and Esteban Ocon all got away unpunished for exceeding the time limit. However, Norris will receive a reprimand for the offence, as the stewards believe the McLaren driver could have done more to adhere to the time limit. The same goes for Yuki Tsunoda, who also receives a reprimand.
