Leclerc, Ve💞rstappen and Hamilton - who finished the race on the podium, in that order - have all been handed suspended fines of €10,000.
The race stewards confirmed: "The Stewards received a report from the Media Delegate, which was subsequently confirmed by video evidence, that the physio / drivers’ assistants of the top three finishers entered parc f🐠erme without permission and in violation of the procedure that was published prior to the race 'for the orderly conduct of the event.'
"In part this is to prevent handing over of items to the drivers prior to them being weighed.
