Audi Invokes Intention to Appeal Against Tsunoda’s Ruling at F1 Italian GP
Audi has filed an intention to appeal a decision by FIA stewards regarding Yuki Tsunoda's positioning during the Italian Grand Prix. Audi argues that Tsunoda's actions warranted a penalty under Article B5.9.4.
Why it matters
The appeal challenges the consistency of FIA officiating in Formula 1, which could impact future race regulations and standings.
Audi has taken up Yuki Tsunoda's non-penalty case with the FIA after filing an intention to appeal for the aborted start in F1 Italian GP.
After the initial start in F1 Italian GP was red-flagged due to repairs after heavy crash for Ferrari's Charles Leclerc , the grid went for another standing start when Racing Bull's Tsunoda was positioned wrongly on the grid box. He was initially going the left side for his original position.
But due to red flag, his start position changed. He quickly realised and changed towards right but that late change left him in a slightly diagonal position, facing the wall. The FIA stewards noted that the Race Director took the call for an aborted start and extra formation lap.
