Kimi Räikkönen has received a fine of 2,500 euros (£2,000) for an illegal pit lane entry during Saturday morning’s final practice session for the Canadian Grand Prix.
The Lotus driver made a mistake entering the final corner, ruining his lap and thus deciding to abort it immediately; although FIA stewards deemed that the move was not dangerous, as no other car was in the vicinity, he did break sporting rules by crossing the white line.
In Monaco two weeks ago, Räikkönen was angered during the race when the Sauber of Sergio Pérez cut directly across his bows in order to enter the pit lane; the Mexican duly received a drive-through penalty for the moment.
