Sunday's penultimate race of the season. </p><p>The Dutchman had pipped Mercedes driver to the fastest time by just 0.055s to secure what appeared to be his first pole since the Austrian Grand Prix in June. But Verstappen’s ninth pole of the year has now been chalked off. </p><h2><strong>The stewards' explanation </strong></h2><p>"Car 1 was on a different preparation strategy to that of Car 63. Car 1 was well outside of the delta and the driver of Car 1 explained he had let Cars 4 and 14 past," the stewards said. </p><aside id="block-inject--ad_manager_block:mpu2_mobile"><div class="block block-ad-manager block-ad-manager-blockmpu2-mobile"><div class="contextual-region"><div class="mobile unit-block"><div class="mobile unit"><div id="mpu-2-mobile"></div><script> // cmgAdQueue.push(function() { AccelerateAdManager.displayAd('mpu-2-mobile'); }); // </script></div></div></div></div></aside><p>"The driver of Car 63 claimed that he had adhered to the delta and did not expect Car 1 to be on the ra ing line. He stated that if a car was going slow in a high speed corner, it should not be on the racing line. </p><p>"The Stewards regard this case as a complicated one in that clearly Car 1 did not comply with the Race Director’s Event Notes and clearly was driving, in our determination, unnecessarily slowly considering the circumstances. </p><p>"It was obvious the driver of Car 1 was attempting to cool his tyres. He also could see Car 63 approaching as he looked in his mirror multiple times whilst on the small straight between Turns 11 and 12. </p><aside id="block-inject--ad_manager_block:300x1"><div class="block block-ad-manager block-ad-manager-block300x1"><div class="contextual-region"><div class="ad-300x1-wrapper"><div id="300x1"></div></div><script> // cmgAdQueue.push( function() { AccelerateAdManager.displayAd('300x1')} ); // </script></div></div></aside><p>"Unusually, this incident occurred when neither car was on a push lap. Had Car 63 been on a push lap, the penalty would have most likely been the usual 3 grid position penalty, however in mitigation of penalty, it was obvious that the driver of Car 63 had clear visibility of Car 1 and that neither car was on a push lap."</p><h2><strong>How the drivers reacted</strong></h2><p>After qualifying, Verstappen was quick to downplay the incident.</p><p>“There were two cars in front of me also making a gap, so I had to make a gap. I knew that everyone was on a slow lap, not on a push up,” he said.</p><p>"And then I think George got excited. He wanted to pass and get around. That's fine, I mean, everyone of course tries to get their position to have the best possible start to the lap.”</p><p>Russell, however, argued: "I was following my delta, and I didn't want to get penalised because we were told to follow the delta.”</p><aside id="block-inject--ad_manager_block:mpu3_mobile"><div class="block block-ad-manager block-ad-manager-blockmpu3-mobile"><div class="contextual-region"><div class="mobile unit-block"><div class="mobile unit"><div id="mpu-3-mobile"></div><script> // cmgAdQueue.push(function() { AccelerateAdManager.displayAd('mpu-3-mobile'); }); // </script></div></div></div></div></aside><p>He added: "I ended up going through the gravel all over the floor, so it felt like the floor was scraping over that curb and through the gravel.</p><p>"So I hope it didn't damage it. Maybe that's the reason why we didn't improve. I don't know. But it was a bit of a hairy one, two corners before we started the lap."</p></div></div><div class="article-author-block block block-configurable-views-block block-configurable-views-blockauthors"><div class="views-element-container"><div class="js-view-dom-id-4386c53a75b4400bdbccceed073572f2bf3ce228d91dade13589d6032c762367"><div class="view-content"><div class="views-row"><div class="cmg-user user_author_profile"><div class="image"> <picture> <source srcset="https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail_3x__webp/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png.webp?itok=z0YzFmE1 270w, https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail_2x__webp/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png.webp?itok=VkeVDLsO 180w, https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail_webp/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png.webp?itok=IdhSLE4m 90w" sizes="100px" type="image/webp"> <source srcset="https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail_3x_/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png?itok=RdyIeQqm 270w, https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail_2x_/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png?itok=wytU240P 180w, https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png?itok=TiDRyJPi 90w" sizes="100px" type="image/png"> <img src="https://cdn.crash.net/styles/thumbnail/s3/pictures/picture-87908-1654792105.png?itok=TiDRyJPi" alt="" width="450" height="448" loading="eager" fetchpriority="high" ></picture></div><div class="info"><div class="header"><div><div class="name"><a href="/about-us/authors/87908">Lewis Larkam</a></div><div class="role">F1 Editor</div></div><div class="social"><div class="social-links"> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/authwall?trk=gf&amp;trkInfo=AQF2bmm2_O34_QAAAYEAi-iQKEGCbdokZ1ZfTFzjNRxb0QjCRPtgqUGjuyS7SR_1-g7SeBNm0jSxCHMQB0L1J31scV95gXgGomFglwNfDqg2ellb8aVkzymF1TEwbQQXTnjDdFw%3D&amp;original_referer=https%3A//www.google.com/&amp;sessionRedirect=https%3A//uk.linkedin.com/in/lewis-larkam-a35037a1" rel="nofollow" class="cmg-link default" target="_blank"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24"><path class="icon-fill" d="M19 0h-14c-2.761 0-5 2.239-5 5v14c0 2.761 2.239 5 5 5h14c2.762 0 5-2.239 5-5v-14c0-2.761-2.238-5-5-5zm-11 19h-3v-11h3v11zm-1.5-12.268c-.966 0-1.75-.79-1.75-1.764s.784-1.764 1.75-1.764 1.75.79 1.75 1.764-.783 1.764-1.75 1.764zm13.5 12.268h-3v-5.604c0-3.368-4-3.113-4 0v5.604h-3v-11h3v1.765c1.396-2.586 7-2.777 7 2.476v6.759z"/></svg></a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Lewis_Larkam" rel="nofollow" class="cmg-link default" target="_blank"><svg id="a" data-name="svg5" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 1000.78 936.69"><g id="b" data-name="layer1"><path id="c" class="icon-fill" data-name="path1009" d="m2.44,0l386.39,516.64L0,936.69h87.51l340.42-367.76,275.05,367.76h297.8l-408.13-545.7L954.57,0h-87.51l-313.51,338.7L300.24,0H2.44Zm128.69,64.46h136.81l604.13,807.76h-136.81L131.13,64.46Z"/></g></svg></a></div></div></div><div class="desc"><p>Lewis regularly attends Grands Prix for Crash.net around the world.
