Retiring from the Japanese Grand Prix a third of the way through, Sergio Perez was back on track for Red Bull in an unusual decision from the team…
He picked up a time penalty for a Safety Car infringement during this phase, having overtaken cars both coming into the pits and exiting while the field were slowed for the hazard on track. However, 20 laps later, Red Bull could be seen preparing the Mexican in the car to send him back out onto the circuit. Astonishingly, on Lap 41, Perez resumed the race and, seconds later, dived into the pits again to serve the five-second time penalty he hadn’t served.
With a time penalty still hanging over him, the Sporting Regulations state that Perez would have picked up a grid penalty for the next Grand Prix had he failed to serve his penalty.
