Former Formula 1 world champion Damon Hill has labeled as 'ridiculous' the FIA's decision to enforce a grid penalty on Valtteri Bottas from a 2024 incident for his 2026 debut with Cadillac. The penalty, stemming from a collision in Abu Dhabi, carries over because Bottas did not race in 2025. This will see the Finn start five places lower at the Australian Grand Prix, despite a recent rule change that prevents such carryovers in the future.
