卡洛斯·塞恩斯承担了在赞德沃特与他的威廉姆斯搭档亚历克斯·阿尔本发生碰撞的责任,这一碰撞为他换来了一次象征性的10秒罚时。
在赞德沃特比赛还剩四圈时,赛恩斯正在防守阿尔本,当时阿尔本试图在1号弯外侧超越这位西班牙车手。内侧的赛恩斯前轮抱死,导致他直线冲出赛道,并与队友发生了一次擦碰。
在这次碰撞中,阿尔本的赛车底板侧面受损,迫使这位泰国车手进站,而赛恩斯则被处以直接的10秒罚时。
"这是一个公正的处罚,"赛恩斯承认。"当我去做防守时,我有点措手不及。我的轮胎磨损非常严重,赛车挣扎得厉害,比赛节奏也很难跟上。而当我在内侧刹车时,1号弯的内侧有一个巨大的颠簸。越靠内侧,颠簸就越大。
"我一踩刹车就抱死了,还把亚历克斯也带上了,这对那场比赛来说是最糟糕的结果,因为我们又并不是在争夺什么重要的东西。但说实话,这真的让我非常意外。向他道歉,因为这绝对不是我想要的结果。"
到那时,威廉姆斯 的两位车手都因赛车缺乏竞争力而在积分榜垫底,分别排在第 15 和第 16 位,仅领先于 凯迪拉克 的 Sergio Perez,所以 Albon 并没有对这起蓝蓝相撞的事故大做文章。

"这不是 Verstappen 和 Ricciardo 那种情况,没那么严重," 他指出,指的是两位前 红牛 车手在 2018 年阿塞拜疆大奖赛上那次臭名昭著的碰撞。
"当时完全是他追尾了我。我看到他锁死了轮胎,所以我立即尝试沿着直线跟进。但我们发生了碰撞,我的底板受损严重,所以我们不得不进站。"
阿尔本(Albon)更感到沮丧的是,威廉姆斯车队错失了一个似乎是浪费掉的机会,未能拿下两个多月以来的首个积分——车队上一次进入前十还要追溯到六月初的摩纳哥大奖赛。与此同时,费尔南多·阿隆索(阿隆索)凭借一辆有所进步的阿斯顿·马丁成功拿到积分,他采用一停策略,出人意料地获得第九名。
"最大的遗憾是这场比赛本身,因为我认为我们本处在一场不错的比赛当中," 阿尔本说。
"在那场比赛的大部分时间里,我们都跑在费尔南多的前面。也许速度没有这么快,但我认为我们进站进得太早了。我们出站后落在了一组七八辆车的后面。我需要弄清楚为什么我们这么早进站,因为我们今天真的有机会拿到积分。"

Carlos Sainz explains "fair" penalty for Alex Albon contact: "The worst possible outcome"
Carlos Sainz was penalised for making contact with Williams team-mate Alex Albon at the end of Formula 1's Dutch Grand Prix

Carlos Sainz has shouldered the blame for making contact with his Williams partner Alex Albon in Zandvoort, which netted him a nominal 10-second penalty.
Sainz was defending from Albon four laps before the end of the Zandvoort race when Albon attempted to pass the Spaniard round the outside of Turn 1. On the inside Sainz locked up his front tyres, which sent him in a straight line off the track, trading a glancing blow with his team-mate.
In the collision, the side of Albon's floor sustained damage, forcing the Thai driver to pit, while Sainz was hit with a straightforward 10-second penalty.
"It was a fair penalty," Sainz admitted. "I had a bit of a surprise when I went to defend. I had really worn hard tyres, struggling a lot with the car, with the pace of the race. And when I went to brake on the inside, there was a massive bump in the inside of Turn 1. The further you are on the inside, the bigger it gets.
"As soon as I touched the brakes, I locked up and I took Alex with me, which is the worst possible outcome for that race, because it's not like we were fighting for anything big. But honestly, it caught me so much by surprise. Apologies to him, because it's the last thing I wanted."
By that point both Williams drivers were languishing at the bottom of the order in 15th and 16th in their uncompetitive car, only ahead of Cadillac's Sergio Perez, so Albon didn't make a big deal of the blue-on-blue incident.

"It's not a Verstappen and Ricciardo, it's less serious than that," he pointed out, referring to an infamous collision between the two former Red Bull drivers at the 2018 Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
"It was simply on him. I saw him lock up, so I immediately tried to follow him in a straight line. But we made contact, and my floor was pretty damaged, so we had to box."
Albon was more frustrated by what felt like a wasted opportunity for Williams to score its first points in over two months, with the team last finding the top 10 at the Monaco Grand Prix in early June. Meanwhile, Fernando Alonso did score points in an improved Aston Martin by making a one-stop strategy work and claiming an unexpected ninth place.
"The biggest frustration is the race itself, because I think we were in a good race," Albon said.
"We were in front of Fernando for most of that race. Maybe not with this pace, but I think we boxed too early. We came out behind a group of seven or eight cars. I need to understand why we boxed so early, because we genuinely had a chance to score points today."
