French driver Pierre Gasly of the Alpine team has regained third place from Sunday's Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix. Following a protest by the team, the International Automobile Federation cancelled two time penalties for an alleged speeding violation in the pit lane, which had caused Gasly to lose his podium finish after the race. idnes.cz ↗

Gasly crossed the finish line in third place, but after two five-second penalties he dropped in the results standings. Alpine appealed the decision, and the federation subsequently acknowledged that the penalties were not justified. According to available information, a distance of 77 centimeters played a role in the case, which had originally led to the pit lane pass being assessed as a violation. Der Standard ↗

The revision of the results means that Gasly has once again been classified in third place at the Monaco Grand Prix. The change also affected the standings of other drivers, as Isack Hadjar was listed as fourth after the results review. For Alpine, this is a significant result achieved only after additional proceedings off the track. Le Figaro ↗

The case also drew attention to the sensitivity of measurements in the pit lane and to the importance of protest mechanisms in Formula 1. The final classification of the Monaco Grand Prix was amended by the federation's decision several days after the race. Index.hu ↗
