Final practice in Australia proved rather expensive for McLaren after the British team were handed a 5,000 Euro fine for unsafely releasing Lando Norris into the path of Robert Kubica's Williams.
According to a report from the stewards, who spoke to Norris and McLaren representatives, the team admitted releasing Norris’s car from the garage in an unsafe manner, with Kubica having to take evasive action as a result.
