Alpine and Red Bull break curfew
Both teams worked late into the night from Friday to Saturday. They will not be penalized.
Night work before taking a break for the winter. On the night of Friday 18th to Saturday 19th November, the mechanics from Alpine and Red Bull were present in the pits.
With this late work, both teams have violated the curfew imposed by the FIA so that mechanics can have enough time to rest. This period starts 15 hours and 30 minutes before the start of FP3 and ends 3 hours before.
Both teams use up their first joker of the season, out of the two allowed. They will therefore not be penalized.
