Juan Pablo Montoya's daughter, Paulina, accidentally copped a €500 fine for her F2 driver brother, Sebastian, on Friday at the Spanish GP. The reason? Her dress was not up to regulation standards! According to the Stewards: "Article 22.15 of the Sporting Regulations states all team and technical personnel must wear long trousers in the pit lane during all practice sessions and the races. Having considered the matter extensively, the Stewards determined that a team member of Car 11 near the car was not wearing long trousers during the session and therefore decided to fine the team €500." Despite Paulina clearly being a guest, the regulations deem anyone allowed into the "restricted area" the responsibility of the driver and also subject to the same regulations. So, unfortunately for the Montoyas, the rules are the rules!
