Charles Leclerc penalized for speeding in the pit lane
The Monegasque arrived too quickly in the pit lane during his second pit stop. The Ferrari driver is penalized with a five-second penalty.
The pitlane at the Hungaroring is not a friend of Charles Leclerc. The Ferrari driver initially experienced a very bad pit stop at the beginning of the race, with a stoppage of nearly 10 seconds, causing him to lose valuable time. And most importantly, positions.
Shortly after mid-race, the Monegasque driver went back to the pit lane to put on a new set of hard tires. Here, the man with the number 16 arrived at the entrance of the pit lane while locking his wheels. Shortly after, the FIA opened an investigation.
It turned out that Charles Leclerc exceeded the allowed speed limit and was therefore punished with a five-second penalty. This penalty will be added to his race time once the Grand Prix is over.
