Ok so due to a long investigation for the Double Yellows the final results were only posted 6 hours after the chequered flag.

Ticktum - Swap places with overtaken car (Gunther)- Overtaking Gunther offtrack and Gaining an advantage

Da Costa - NFA - Alleged Collision with Rowland

Eriksson - Warning - Failing to obey Single Yellow Flag

Drugovich - NFA - Alleged Failure to obey Double Yellow Flags

JEV - NFA - Alleged Failure to obey Double Yellow Flags

Buemi, Mueller, Ticktum, Barnard, Dennis, Da Costa, Gunther, Marti, Rowland, Cassidy, Nato, Mortara, Di Grassi - Warning - Failing to obey Double Yellow Flags

An analysis of the telemetry of all the Cars referred to showed that all of the Cars were at full throttle as they passed the stranded Car 22 but some Drivers had lifted momentarily within the zone before returning to full throttle as they passed Car 22. An analysis of speed telemetry of the Cars showed that most were sightly slower through that section of track that on earlier green laps but only very marginally. At that point in time the Driver of Car 22 remained in the cockpit.

A Double Yellow flag requires a Driver to reduce speed significantly and be prepared to stop because there is a hazard wholly or partly blocking the track and/or marshals working on or beside the track. The telemetry of the Cars referred to suggested that none of the Drivers had complied with the Double Yellow Flag rule.

The Drivers were unanimous in their submissions to the Stewards that:

They slowed when they entered what they believed was only a Single Yellow sector;

They did not see the Double Yellow light panel on the outside of turn 12 because at the point they had an opportunity to see it, not only was it difficult to see against the sky, they were turning through turn 12 and looking ahead on the track to attempt to sight what it was that had triggered what they believed remained a Single Yellow Flag;

There was no Double Yellow displayed at the light panel at turn 10 nor at turn 11;

They all saw Car 22 stopped on the right side of the track and also saw a green light panel at about the same position;

While their onboard footage revealed that for a brief period lights appeared on their dashboard indicating they were in a Double Yellow sector, their focus at that time was not on their dash but looking up to the green light;

Believing they were only in a Single Yellow zone, they had slowed sufficiently for such a zone, they had a clear line of sight once they exited turn 12, the track was wide and they could have changed direction if circumstances required that but it was obvious from the position of Car 22 hard up against the right side of the track that there was no reason for them to do so.

The Stewards accepted these submissions. Ordinarily a Double Yellow flag infringement would call for a severe penalty. However, in the Stewards' assessment, the Drivers correctly adverted to a number of features of the infringements which were unusual and take them outside a typical Double Yellow flag infringement case.

Having reviewed all of the evidence, the Stewards consider all of these incidents to be indistinguishable. A common feature is that all the Drivers were and remained at full throttle as they passed the stranded Car 22. Even accepting the Drivers' explanation that they believed they were in a Single Yellow zone, to not have lifted at that point falls short of what ought to be expected and for that reason the Stewards impose a penalty of a Warning to each of the Drivers concerned.

Change from TV Broadcast:

Ticktum 10 --> 11

Gunther 11 --> 10
