Deledda given permission to start from the back of the grid

Alessio Deledda has been given permission by the stewards to start Sprint Race 1 and the Feature Race from the back of the grid in Monte Carlo.

The HWA RACELAB driver did not set a time within 107% of the fastest lap time in Thursday’s FIA Formula 2 Qualifying, which is a breach of Article 34.2 in the Sporting Regulations.

However, the stewards will give the Italian permission to start both races, following a hearing with team manager Nicola Palarchi.
