FIA Reveals Verdict On Red Bull Protest Against Russell After F1 Miami GP

  • Following the Miami Grand Prix on May 4, 2025, officials dismissed Red Bull's challenge regarding George Russell's conduct during the race in Miami, Florida.
  • Red Bull lodged the protest claiming Russell failed to slow under yellow flags during a virtual safety car period, but stewards ruled the protest unfounded.
  • Stewards observed from the data that Russell eased off the throttle by approximately a quarter, which decreased the rate of acceleration without lowering his overall speed, aligning with the intent of the regulation.
  • Christian Horner stated that although the GPS data shows Russell eased off the throttle, he did not sufficiently slow down, and the rules clearly require a noticeable decrease in speed.
  • The protest rejection confirmed Russell’s third place finish, while Max Verstappen, starting on pole, finished fourth behind McLaren teammates with upgrades expected at Imola.
