FIA appeal ruling reinstates Gasly’s Monaco time penalties
The FIA International Court of Appeal has set aside the review decision that had removed two five-second penalties from Pierre Gasly’s Monaco result.
The FIA International Court of Appeal has granted appeals brought by McLaren Racing and Red Bull Racing over the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix. The court reinstated two five-second time penalties originally imposed on Alpine driver Pierre Gasly for pit-lane speeding.
The penalties had been rescinded in June after Alpine sought a review, which also led to a revised race classification and championship points. The appeal ruling sets aside that review decision and directs the relevant sporting authority to amend the classification and points documents as appropriate.
The FIA’s published decision concerns the application of the Monaco penalties. It does not itself set out the revised finishing order; readers should consult the FIA’s official documents for the updated classification.
