Formula 1 fans were left stunned when a major blunder by FIA stewards led to Williams F1 driver Carlos Sainz being wrongly penalized for the upcoming Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. The racing world is gearing up for the much-anticipated fifth round of the 2025 season in Jeddah, with Lando Norris aiming to solidify his lead in the championship battle against rivals like Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen.

Sainz, who is currently struggling in 16th place in the drivers’ standings with just one point, faced a setback after a collision with Kimi Antonelli during the Bahrain GP. Despite serving a 10-second penalty during the race, the stewards mistakenly imposed a three-place grid penalty on Sainz for the Saudi GP. However, a swift correction was issued by the FIA, acknowledging that the penalty had already been served during the pit stop in Bahrain.

The Spanish driver, who joined Williams from Ferrari with high expectations, has been outperformed by his teammate Alex Albon so far this season. But Sainz’s stellar qualifying performance in Bahrain, where he outpaced Albon and secured the eighth spot, hints at his potential to score points consistently in upcoming races.

As the F1 circus prepares for the action-packed weekend in Saudi Arabia, all eyes will be on the Williams team to see if Sainz can turn his luck around and make a mark in the championship standings. Stay tuned for more updates and drama from the world of Formula 1.
