Williams slapped with fine after latest Sargeant error

Logan Sargeant has incurred Williams a fine after falling foul of the reduced pit lane speed limit at Zandvoort.

23 August 2024

Williams has been handed a €100 fine after Logan Sargeant exceeded the pit lane speed limit during FP1 for the Dutch Grand Prix. The speed limit at Zandvoort is only 60 km/h, down from the usual 80 km/h due to the size of the pit lane. The American driver was found half a kilometre above the limit and thus his team were duly fined. It constitutes a breach of Article 34.7 of the F1 sporting regulations, as the FIA confirmed: "Car 2 exceeded the pit lane speed limit which is set at 60 km/h for this event by 0.5 km/h." Logan Sargeant is into his final 10 grand prix with the Grove-based team, with Carlos Sainz partnering Alexander Albon from 2025 onwards.
