Red Bull's protest against Mercedes driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell following the F1 Miami Grand Prix has been rejected. 

Russell benefitted from pitting under a Virtual Safety Car period during Sunday’s race to jump ahead of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen and claim the f♕inal spot on the podium in third, behind the dominant 🍃McLarens.

Red Bull believe Russell failed to slow for yellow flags when Sauber’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Gabriel Bortoleto retired with engine trouble on Lap 33.

Versta✱ppen was heard radioing in to his team to complain that Russell had not respected the yellow flags.

The Dutchman was later told to ensure he finished wi💜thin five seconds of Russell. He crossed the line 2.3sꦐ behind the Mercedes driver.

T🐽his was despite no messages from race control about any invest💖igation.

Red Bu𓃲ll subsequently decided to lodge a protest against Russell following the raceꦕ.

Both Carlos Sainz and Pierre Gasly were summoned to see the stew🐓ards for an alleged breach of Appendix H of Article 2.5.5 of the FIA’s International Sporting Code, which relates t𒉰o failing to slow for yellow flags.

Russell was sꦑummoned to see the stewards about the incident following Red Bull’s protest.

The 🎶Briton did not attend the post-race FI✅A press conference for medical reasons, having complained of having bad stomach cramps in the closing stages of the race. 

The Miami stewards ultimately threw out Red Bull's protest.🥃 

"It was evident from the onboard fo🥂otage as well as from telemetry that Car 63 lifted the thro꧑ttle when passing the yellow flag zone. The throttle was lifted by approx. 25 percent and this resulted in a reduction of torque of approx. 30 percent," they said. 

"Article 26.1. a) requires the driver to hav🥂e “discernibly reduced speed” in a yellow flag zone but does not specify if that means reducing the absolute speed or reducing the speed rela🍸tive to the regular racing speed in the relevant part of the track. 

"The speed of Car 63 in the yellow flag zone was considerably slower than the regular racing speed, but the absolute speed while passing thಌrough the yellow flag zone increased slightly. 

"The Stewards determine that the requirement of Article 26.1 a) concerning the reduction of speed in a yellow flag zone can only relate to a reduction relative to the regular racing speed as the reduction of the absolute speed can, depending on the part of the traꦚck in which the yellow flag is displayed, represent a compliance or a non-compliance with the regulations whereas a reduction of the relative speed always signals that the driver has acknowledged and respected the yellow flag. For instance, in a braking zone the absolute speed can be reduced without necessarily complying with the regulations."
