After weeks of Formula 1 paddock whispers about a looming cost cap decision, Tuesday's announcement that all 10 teams were in the clear brought relief to many.
The longer the FIA delayed announcing its findings from the 2022 spending reviews, the greater the prospect was of one or more teams to have been found to be in breach.
Team bosses were left nervously checking their phones for calls from their Chief Financial Officers to try to get a clearer picture of just when they would get the FIA Certificates of Compliance so they could relax a bit. As F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali said at Monza last weekend:"We are in the second year of the financial regulation, and I want to be positive because I see positive elements.
Furthermore, teams also have to trust the system because we are now past the point of no return if there are complaints. The decision of the FIA to issue Cost Cap Compliance certificates is non-reversible. The only potential change beyond this moment is if a whistleblower comes forward and reveals that there have been breaches that mean the FIA has good reason to open its own investigation.
Team bosses revealed that their CFOs had been handed multi-page questionnaires demanding more than 100 points of clarification to clear up grey areas in their own submissions.
