Webber warned for qualifying block

Saturday, August 29, 2009

Red Bull's Mark Webber has received a verbal word of warning from FIA race stewards followed an on-track incident during qualifying at Spa on Saturday. The Australian is judged to have held up another car during the session but will be handed no grid drop penalty.

Having qualified ninth on the grid, Red Bull Racing received the following message from the FIA late on Saturday afternoon in Belgium:

'The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director (Charlie Whiting), have considered the following matter, determine a breach of the regulations has been committed by the competitor named below and impose the penalty referred to.'

GPUpdate.net can reveal that the incident took place just over two and a half minutes from the end of Q1 but the FIA did not share information on the other car involved in the happening.
