Mercedes seek right of review on Gasly penalty U-turn
Mercedes says the ruling may alter results for several drivers after Gasly’s penalties were overturned and five competitors were affected in Monaco.
- Mercedes has formally requested a right of review after Formula One stewards reinstated Alpine's Pierre Gasly to third place at this month's Monaco Grand Prix.
- Stewards initially handed Gasly two five-second penalties for pitlane speeding, dropping him to seventh, before a U-turn announced last week returned him to third.
- McLaren's Oscar Piastri dropped from fourth to fifth after the reinstatement, while George Russell lost points after incurring a drive-through penalty for failing to serve his pitlane speeding sanction correctly.
- Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff stated they requested a review because they "want to be sitting at the table when decisions are being made," despite calling the effort a long shot.
- Red Bull and McLaren plan to appeal, claiming the decision risks "creating sporting inequity and undermining confidence in the consistent application of the FIA Sporting Regulations.
