The stewards of Formula 1 explained the reason for the fine imposed on Fersstappen during the Grand Prix of Saudi Arabia
The press service of the FIA published an explanatory note from the stewards of the Grand Prix of Saudi Arabia, which took place on Sunday in Gidd.
The victory was won by Oscar Piasta from McLaren. Max Ferstappen from Red Bull finished the second, losing 2.8 seconds to the leader. At the same time, Vermstappen received a five -second fine for a cut of turn at the start of the race, committed in the fight against Piast. The stewards explained the reason why they made a fine to the Dutch racer.
– Based on the position of the front axis of the Piaston machine, we concluded that Ferestappen had to leave the pursuer a space ahead. Next, the Fertappen car left the track and cut off the turn, gaining an advantage. In a normal situation, a fine for such an incident would be 10 seconds. However, we took into account the fact that the incident occurred in the first round in the first turn, considering this to a softening circumstance. The penalty was reduced to five seconds, – the note of the stewards said.
Thanks to the victory in Saudi Arabia, Piasta climbed first place in the personal standings of the season (99 points). Lando Norris Second (89), Fersstappen in the third position (87).

The Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin teams have filed a joint lawsuit with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) over the advantage that Mercedes and Red Bull may have in the 2026 season under the new technical regulations, The Race reports.
In 2026, Formula 1 will switch to new technical regulations, which provide for a reduction in the fuel compression ratio in power plants from 18:1 to 16:1. This indicator will be monitored off the track.
According to the source, Mercedes and Red Bull have found a way to pass the tests while maintaining the actual race compression ratio at 18:1. This could give teams an advantage of 0.3-0.4 seconds per lap.
— The regulations clearly define the maximum compression ratio and the method for measuring it, based on static conditions at ambient temperature. This procedure remains unchanged despite the reduction in the permissible compression ratio for 2026, the FIA said in a statement.
The FIA does not intend to change the regulations at least until the tests are carried out. Teams are allowed to update their power unit designs every six races of the season.
