Sergio Perez reacts as F1 stewards hit Red Bull ace with grid punishment after qualifying

Sergio Perez has slammed the stewards at this weekend's Austrian Grand Prix for their delayed punishment after qualifying.

Officials were very strict about track limits rules throughout the session, with several drivers experiencing the frustration of having their lap times deleted. Perez was among those affected, as he lost a couple of times almost straight away during Q2.

Eventually he managed a lap which initially stood and was quick enough for the Red Bull man to secure a place in Q3. But shortly after, the warning came that he was under investigation after appearing to go off the track again during the lap that secured his chance to compete for pole position.
