Team principal Andrea Stella said the decision to give Norris a 10-second stop-and-go penalty - the severest that can be handed out other than a disqualification - "lacked any specificity and proportion".

Verstappen was in a tight fight with Norris throughout the race until the Briton was given a 10-second stop-and-go penalty for failing to slow for yellow flags.

We inched comfortably through stop-and-go Saturday afternoon traffic and made an impressive left turn ahead of two lanes of oncoming cars as I said my prayers in the passenger seat.

There was less traffic on the freeways and not as much stop-and-go on surface streets.

Whitaker will be the latest judge to oversee the stop-and-go trial, which has been rife with delays.
