Today there are few sports more unequal than Formula 1. Red Bullhas imposed its dictatorship from the first race and has dominated with clear ease practically all the great prizes disputed until now.
It just so happens that in 2021, the Austrian team exceeded the budget limit imposed for the configuration of the car they use this season. As a result, Red Bull received a financial penalty and a wind tunnel time penalty.
However, these reprisals have not prevented until now Max Verstappen and ‘Checo’ Pérez’ have been the only drivers to win a race this season. Stefano Domenicalipresident and CEO of Formula 1, has asked the FIA that apart from the current sanctions Sports are also added.
“I would like the non-sports sanction in case of infringement, it is something that we ask very clearly. There are three regulations to respect: sports, technical and financial. Any infraction must be penalized with sports measures. You can’t go in other directions”, explained Domenicali in an interview with ‘MotorSport’.
According to the media itself, there are three teams that would have exceeded that budget limit for the coming season. That is why the Italian director has also asked the FIA to publish the report on the budget ceiling as soon as possible.
“Control is in the hands of the FIA. Personally, what I have asked is to anticipate the publication of the investigations carried out by the FIA staff as soon as possible… But I am simply saying this because, in this way, there is no room for speculation and comments that are not good for anyone,” he added.
