Red Bull Formula 1 driver Isack Hadjar faces disqualification from Miami Grand Prix qualifying for a floor legality breach.<\/p>\n
Hadjar qualified ninth in Miami where he has struggled compared to team-mate Max Verstappen in Red Bull\u2019s upgraded RB23.<\/p>\n
But he will likely be disqualified from the session results after being referred to the stewards following post-qualifying technical checks.<\/p>\n
There will be a wait before that can become official as Hadjar’s summons to see the stewards is at 7am on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
A check of the legality volumes of Hadjar\u2019s floor showed the floor board protruded 2mm too far on the left and right hand side.<\/p>\n
Technical rule breaches are usually treated as black-and-white situations, regardless of the reason for a breach, which means disqualification.<\/p>\n
Hadjar was using Red Bull\u2019s full upgrade package, the same as Verstappen, which included revisions to the front of the floor.<\/p>\n
He has been much slower than Verstappen and described the car as \u201cvery hard to drive but very fast\u201d, he just \u201ccouldn\u2019t put it all together\u201d and also had an unspecified straightline speed problem.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a very, very tricky track, very low grip with a high track temperature,\u201d Hadjar said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not a very flowy racing track with good grip, it\u2019s completely different. And Max is very, very good at adapting to these conditions.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the corners I can tell you I\u2019ve made big, big progress compared to yesterday. Just I couldn\u2019t tidy up like he did. And on top of that, I\u2019m missing on every straight.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Red Bull Formula 1 driver Isack Hadjar faces disqualification from Miami Grand Prix qualifying for a floor legality…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":644763,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[441],"tags":[49,48,578,576,577,82],"class_list":["post-644762","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-formula-1","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-f1","tag-formula-1","tag-formula1","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/644762","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=644762"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/644762\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/644763"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=644762"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=644762"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=644762"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
