Oscar Piastri got a 10-second penalty for causing a crash on safety car restart, ending Leclerc’s race.
Oscar Piastri was given a 10-second penalty and two penalty points at the 2025 São Paulo Grand Prix for causing a multi-car crash during a safety car restart, resulting in Charles Leclerc’s retirement.
The stewards ruled Piastri “wholly responsible” for failing to establish proper side-by-side overlap with Kimi Antonelli before Turn 1, despite locking up his brakes to avoid contact.
The incident triggered a chain reaction that damaged Leclerc’s Ferrari beyond repair.
While Piastri defended his move, citing limited space, and Leclerc suggested Antonelli shared blame, the penalty stood as consistent with F1’s overtaking guidelines.
Piastri finished fifth after serving the penalty, dropping further behind championship leader Lando Norris, who won the race.
