Giusti handed post-Qualifying penalty

Following the conclusion of FIA Formula 3 Qualifying in Spielberg, Alessandro Giusti has been handed a grid penalty.

The MP Motorsport driver was alleged to have impeded Car 19 of Christian Ho.

After the session, the Stewards reviewed both video and telemetry evidence and heard from both drivers, along with team representatives from MP Motorsport and Rodin Motorsport.

The Stewards determined that Car 9 of Giusti had unnecessarily impeded Car 19 at Turn 3.

Giusti will serve the three-place penalty in both the Sprint and Feature Races this weekend in Spielberg.

With the penalty applied, the Frenchman is now set to start Saturday's race from P10 on the grid, and Sunday's Feature Race from ninth position.
