In a dramatic post-race twist, the FIA has announced the disqualification and imposition of a late penalty on a Formula 1 star following a detailed review after the British Grand Prix.
The driver, whose identity was confirmed in an official FIA statement, was found to have committed a serious breach of the Sporting Regulations during the race at Silverstone. After analyzing telemetry, video footage, and team communications, race stewards determined that the violation warranted both a disqualification and an additional penalty.
“The driver in question has been disqualified from the official results of the 2025 British Grand Prix,” the FIA stated. “In addition, a time penalty has been applied for further breaches identified in the post-race investigation.”
The decision has major implications for the championship standings, significantly altering the final race classification and dealing a heavy blow to the driver’s title hopes.
The affected team has not yet issued a formal response but is reportedly reviewing the FIA’s findings. More updates are expected as the situation continues to develop.
