What happened: Alpine has formally submitted a petition for a "Right of Review" concerning pit lane speeding penalties issued during Sunday's Monaco Grand Prix. The team is challenging the accuracy of the FIA timing systems after multiple drivers were penalized for exceeding the 60 km/h limit by margins as small as 0.1 km/h.
Why it matters: The petition aims to overturn 10 seconds in penalties that demoted Pierre Gasly from third to seventh place in the final classification. Alpine intends to present new car telemetry evidence to prove the pit limiter was active, seeking to restore its podium finish in the constructors' standings.
By the numbers: Infractions recorded at 60.1 km/h and 60.4 km/h (Limit: 60 km/h); Result dropped from P3 to P7; 6 total drivers penalized for pit lane speeding.
What to watch: FIA stewards must now determine if the provided telemetry constitutes a significant and relevant new element before proceeding with a formal hearing.
