Austrian Grand Prix Race Result Confirmed as FIA Issues Lando Norris Dis…read more
The FIA has officially confirmed the final race results of the Austrian Grand Prix, following a decisive verdict that sees Lando Norris disqualified from the event. The ruling comes after a thorough post-race investigation revealed that Norris’s McLaren breached technical regulations, prompting his removal from the standings.
According to the FIA, Norris’s car was found to be in violation of floor wear limits, a critical rule that ensures cars maintain a safe and legal ride height throughout the race. The breach was detected during a late scrutineering process, and after a full review, the stewards issued a formal disqualification.
Norris, who had originally finished inside the top positions and was in strong contention for podium points, now loses all rewards from the weekend—dealing a heavy blow to both his championship hopes and McLaren’s constructor campaign.
In an official statement, the FIA said:
“Car #4 was found not to comply with Article 3.5.9 of the Technical Regulations. As such, the driver is disqualified from the results of the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix.”
McLaren responded to the decision, stating:
“We respect the FIA’s ruling, though we are disappointed by the outcome. We will review the findings in detail before deciding on any further action.”
The disqualification has reshuffled the race classification, with rival teams such as Ferrari, Mercedes, and Aston Martin all benefitting from Norris’s exclusion. It also highlights the FIA’s continued commitment to strict technical enforcement in an increasingly competitive field.
More updates to follow as the situation develops.
