Notes edit

  1. ^ Mattia Casadei, who initially set the fastest time during qualifying, was penalized for illegal tyre pressures during the second qualifying session. His lap time which led to him qualifying on pole was cancelled and he was also disqualified from Q2, leading him to start tenth on the grid. Jordi Torres, who initially finished second in Q2, was promoted to the pole position grid slot during the race and was also officially awarded the pole position statistic.[26]
