Perez won Sunday’s Monaco Grand Prix from Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz and Verstappen, who took third ahead of championship rival Charles Leclerc. But Red Bull team principal Christian Horner confirmed after the race that Ferrari had protested both of his drivers for appearing to cross the line at the exit of the pitlane following their stops. Verstappen’s incident was seen on the world TV feed, with the Dutchman losing control of his Red Bull and swerving towards the yellow line at pit exit, though it was not clear whether his wheels had gone over the line. There was no footage of the incident relating to Perez, though it was noted by the stewards during the race. Neither incidents were investigated at the time.

He was on the line and if you look at the sporting code, the wording says crossing. “Then we had a clarification at Turkey in 2020 to avoid any discussions and if you look at the race driver notes, it says staying to the right – so staying on the line is breaching the race director notes.
