Kimi Antonelli penalized for track limits after retiring in Barcelona
Summary

Kimi Antonelli received a five-second penalty for exceeding track limits multiple times at the Formula 1 Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix. The penalty was announced after the race, despite Antonelli retiring shortly after overtaking George Russell. He had accumulated three infringements during the event, which could have impacted his finishing position had he completed the race. The stewards noted that one violation was detected post-race, leading to an earlier warning not being issued in real-time. Antonelli remains the championship leader, 41 points ahead of Lewis Hamilton.
