The Sauber Formula 1 team is investigating the disqualification of Nico Hulkenberg from the Bahrain Grand Prix, where he finished 13th while striving for points. The disqualification occurred because Hulkenberg’s skid plank was measured at 8.4mm, falling below the required minimum thickness of 9mm. This marks the second instance this season where a car has been disqualified for similar compliance issues.
