Tom Coronel was given a 10-second time penalty by the Stewards of the Meeting, for causing the incident with Javier Villa while they were fighting for the lead in the second race.
This resulted in the Dutchman demoted from fourth to seventh.
The other two collisions investigated – Monteiro-Menu-Huff in Race 1 and Barth-Bennani in Race 1 – were considered as normal race incidents by the Stewards.
