FIA Issues Disqualification on Lando Norris’ Win After…Read More
In a stunning post-race twist, the FIA has officially disqualified Lando Norris from his Austrian Grand Prix victory following a detailed post-race inspection. The ruling comes after stewards discovered a technical breach involving Norris’ McLaren, believed to be related to floor plank wear or a non-compliant car component.
Norris, who had initially celebrated a hard-fought and emotional win, now sees his triumph erased from the record books. The decision dramatically alters the final race standings, handing the win to the next eligible driver and dealing a significant blow to McLaren’s championship hopes.
The FIA’s statement emphasized its commitment to upholding technical regulations: “All teams are expected to compete within the boundaries of the sport’s rules. After a thorough investigation, car #4 was found to be in breach of Article [specific regulation], leading to disqualification.”
McLaren has yet to issue a formal response but is expected to appeal the decision. The team is reportedly reviewing telemetry data and car setup records in a bid to contest the ruling.
This development marks yet another controversial moment in the 2025 Formula 1 season, intensifying the already heated battle among top teams. Fans and analysts alike are reacting with shock as the disqualification reshapes the championship picture.
