Roman Staněk had his fastest time deleted for being the sole cause of a red flag after he collided with John Bennett when returning to the track. This demoted him from 9th to 12th. Additionally, Staněk received a five-place grid penalty in both races for causing a collision with Bennett. This demoted him from 12th to 17th on the grid. Victor Martins had his fastest lap time deleted for being the sole cause of a red flag after losing control and crashing at turn 3. This demoted him from 4th to 13th. Joshua Dürksen was handed a one-place grid penalty for rejoining the track in an unsafe manner and impeding Laurens van Hoepen. This demoted him from 14th to 15th on the grid for both races. Kush Maini was given a five-second time penalty in the sprint race for causing a collision with Amaury Cordeel. Because Maini did not classify in the sprint, this converted into a three-place grid penalty for the feature race, dropping him from 16th to 19th. Arvid Lindblad received two ten-second time penalties during the Monza feature race, both for causing a collision. Because Lindblad failed to classify at Monza, the penalties converted into two five-place grid penalties for the Baku sprint race. This dropped him from 17th to 21st on the grid. Amaury Cordeel had his fastest lap time deleted for being the sole cause of a red flag after he crashed at turn 13. Cordeel failed to set a lap time within 107% of the fastest driver. He was permitted to start both races from the back of the grid.
