According to the commission's report, a member of the Red Bull team entered a restricted area of the grid, next to Lando Norris's McLaren position, after the formation lap had begun. At that moment, officials were already closing the access gate ("gate well area"), an area that becomes strictly regulated once the start procedure has been triggered.
This sanction had no sporting impact on the weekend's result. Starting from pole position, Max Verstappen won in Austin, recording his fifth victory of the season.
