The FIA has officially ruled on Red Bull Racing’s late protest following the dramatic conclusion of the Canadian Grand Prix. The protest, submitted several hours after the race, questioned potential rule breaches by rival teams during a critical part of the event.
After a detailed investigation, the FIA has dismissed Red Bull’s protest, citing a lack of conclusive evidence to justify altering the final race results. As a result, the podium finish and championship standings remain unchanged.
Red Bull’s complaint focused on alleged track limits violations and procedural irregularities during a pit stop involving one of their title contenders. However, FIA stewards determined that no rules were broken and that no team gained an unfair advantage.
With this decision, speculation around possible penalties has now been put to rest. Red Bull acknowledged the ruling in a short statement but expressed disappointment, suggesting they may pursue further discussions with the FIA to clarify the regulations involved.
The F1 paddock now turns its attention to the next Grand Prix as teams and drivers react to the FIA’s latest call.
