As for the Dutchman and Hamilton complaining about the duration of the Safety Car and their tyres losing heat, Masi said Race Control was following the rules.
“There’s a requirement in the sporting regulations to wave all the lapped cars passed,” he said.
“So from that point it was position six onwards that were still running. Between 10, 11 cars had to unlap themselves.
“And therefore the Safety Car period was a bit longer than what we would have normally expected.”
