Sergio Pérez finished second in the Miami GP, beaten by Max Verstappen. He now has to report to the stewards. Pérez was reportedly late for the drivers' parade.

Perez late to drivers' parade

And that is perhaps a bigger sin in America than in any other race. During the American event, drivers are in limelight more than usual. Pérez and the team have to report to the stewards for violating rule 19.4b in the sporting regulations.

The rule requires all drivers to be present half an hour before the start of the drivers' parade. The Red Bull driver failed to do so. A time penalty or other sporting penalty will not ensue for the Mexican.

Update | Perez is reprimanded by stewards

As expected, Sergio Perez has been penalised for not being on time for the Drivers Parade. However, (as expected) this has not resulted in a sporting punishment. The Mexican driver, therefore, simply retains his second place in the Miami Grand Prix. Perez has received a (non-race-related) reprimand.
