When a driver speeds in the pit lane during practice they only get a fine but when they speed during the race (when they gain a sporting advantage) they get a time penalty and it’s the exact same infraction. You say starting infraction as if the two cases are the same but they’re not.

Maybe bring up that example when Norris runs a red light in free practice, not during the race session.
