DOC 98 - Decision - Alpine Right of Review

2026 Monaco Grand Prix

Published

Summary

Alpine's petitions for review of Stewards' Decisions 73 and 75 at the 2026 Monaco GP are admitted due to new, significant, and relevant evidence regarding pit lane speed timing.

Explanation

The Stewards admitted Alpine's petitions for review of Decisions 73 and 75 concerning Pierre Gasly's alleged pit lane speeding, finding a significant and relevant new element: FOM provided evidence that the distance used in timing calculations was inaccurate, leading to overestimated speeds. The Stewards determined this new information, unavailable at the time of the original decisions, satisfies the criteria under ISC Article 14.1.1 for a Right of Review. A second hearing will follow. Appeals are permitted for admissibility decisions but not for the finding of a new element.
