Ferrari feels there was enough new evidence to reverse Carlos Sainz’s Australian GP penalty, but will work with the FIA to reach improvements in F1 in the future Full story ⬇️
Ferrari still feels enough new evidence was presented to reverse Carlos Sainz’s Australian Grand Prix penalty, but will work with the FIA to further improve the policing of Formula 1.The FIA has dismissed the Scuderia petitioning Sainz’s five-second penalty that was awarded in Melbourne for the Spaniard hittingWith the round heavily disrupted and ultimately finishing with a procession behind the safety car, the reprimand dropped Sainz from fourth at the flag down to a point-less 12th.
It cited a Force India case from 2014 as a precedent for being able to offer a driver witness statement and new telemetry data to get such a punishment overturned. Sainz’s late braking point ahead of the Turn 1 collision was provided to the FIA, in addition to the driver arguing too cool tyre temperatures from a slow formation lap and low sun impairing visibility had contributed to the crash.
But the FIA threw the case out on the grounds this did not meet the required “significant and relevant new information which was unavailable to the parties seeking the review at the time of the decision concerned”, while also arguing all drivers were faced with the same conditions as Sainz.Ferrari has issued a statement in response, saying that it was satisfied it had provided enough new information but it was “respectful” of the FIA process and outcome.
The team bulletin read:"We acknowledge the FIA decision not to grant us a right of review in relation to the penalty imposed on"We are naturally disappointed and felt that we had provided sufficient new elements for the FIA to re-examine the decision especially in the context of the particular conditions and multiple incidents that occurred during the final restart.
