FIA Appeal Court Strips Gasly of Monaco Podium and Reinstates Hadjar
- On Friday, the FIA International Court of Appeal reinstated two five-second pit-lane penalties against Alpine's Pierre Gasly, stripping him of his Monaco Grand Prix podium finish and restoring Red Bull's Isack Hadjar to third place.
- Alpine previously won a Right of Review on June 12 after presenting evidence of a "measurement discrepancy" in pit lane timing loops, which had initially overturned the penalties from the June 7 race.
- McLaren and Red Bull successfully appealed the reversal, arguing that modifying Gasly's result created "a breach of the equality of treatment and of sporting fairness" because other drivers had already served their penalties during the race.
- Alpine stated they felt "unjustly punished" by the decision, which reshuffles championship standings and tightens the three-point battle for fifth place between Alpine and Red Bull-owned Racing Bulls.
- The FIA confirmed it is reviewing its current timing system following the August 25 hearing in Paris, where timekeepers admitted to a "measurement discrepancy" that exposed vulnerabilities in F1 pit-lane enforcement.
