Isack Hadjar received a formal warning from the stewards during the Mexico City Grand Prix following an incident involving a fan. A video surfaced showing Hadjar appearing to push a fan who approached him for a selfie in the paddock. The incident reportedly occurred as Hadjar was on his way to the garage ahead of Friday practice, and he was initially called to the stewards for alleged misconduct.
According to the stewards, Hadjar explained that he was late for the first practice session and had already attempted to take a photo with a young fan when he was approached aggressively by another individual. A security team member was present but could not intervene in time. The stewards acknowledged that Hadjar's actions were a response to an invasion of his personal space and considered several mitigating factors before issuing the warning, highlighting the ongoing concerns regarding paddock safety in Mexico City.
