[FIA] Bottas disqualified from qualifying as a 1L sample of fuel could not be collected - Lemmy.world

Does that classify him at the back of the running cars? Or does that throw him behind everyone, including DNFs?
Since he was disqualified and then allowed to compete in the race after a request from Alfa, my assumption is that he would start P20 no matter what
That would make sense. Still sucks for him, though his showing wasn’t all that strong to begin with today…

No mitigating circumstances

I wonder what would be a mitigating circumstance?

Pump failure but there still being fuel that could manually taken by taking tank out would result in less of a punishment. This sounds like there wasn’t 1L of fuel to extract for testing but the parts worked
Rogue criminal siphoning off the remaining fuel.
Checo starts 15…YES! /s
So… They just forgot to refuel him?
