Max Verstappen ‘keeps F1 title from Lewis Hamilton’ as Red Bull ‘learn FIA penalty’ | F1 | Sports

It is reported that the FIA ​​have instead fined Red Bull £22,000 ($25,000) for breaking the budget cap guidelines. The error was because costs incurred by powertrain development were initially included in the submission to the FIA.

The apparent FIA press release added: “The FIA ​​is satisfied, that under the 2021 regulations when powertrain development was not frozen, that this development could also include wind tunnel testing as well as research and development into floor technology which was not required as part of the submission.
