BREAKING F1 NEWS: Many Team Bosses announce protest after Controversial FIA PUNISHMENT multiple teams Penalty at Mexican GP

Following the Mexican Grand Prix, several Formula 1 team principals have voiced their concerns over the FIA’s recent penalties, particularly those affecting multiple teams. The most notable incident involved Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, who received two 10-second penalties for on-track clashes with McLaren’s Lando Norris. These sanctions have sparked debates about the consistency and fairness of FIA’s decisions.

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff remarked that the penalties set a precedent that could alter racing conduct in Formula One. He emphasized the need for drivers to adjust their approach to ensure fair competition. 

Red Bull’s Christian Horner expressed disagreement with the ruling, suggesting that a discussion between stewards and drivers is necessary to align on racing guidelines. He emphasized that traditionally, the driver with the inside line dictates the corner. 

McLaren’s CEO, Zak Brown, also weighed in, stating that Verstappen’s penalties were “probably not enough” and called for an end to aggressive racing tactics.

The FIA has acknowledged the teams’ concerns and is reportedly considering a review of the current racing guidelines to ensure clarity and consistency in future decisions. As the season progresses, teams and drivers are keenly awaiting any updates to the regulations that could impact racing strategies and outcomes.
