BREAKING: FIA Addresses McLaren’s Concerns After Ferrari’s C…read more.
In a rapidly developing story within the Formula 1 paddock, the FIA has officially responded to concerns raised by McLaren following a controversial move involving Ferrari during the recent Grand Prix weekend.
Tensions escalated after Ferrari was accused of bending the rules regarding parc fermé regulations and setup changes, which McLaren argued gave the Italian team a competitive advantage. According to insiders, McLaren formally lodged a protest after reviewing video and telemetry data that allegedly showed Ferrari making unauthorized adjustments during a red flag period.
In a statement released earlier today, the FIA clarified that its technical delegates had reviewed all evidence and deemed Ferrari’s actions to be within the boundaries of the current regulations. However, the governing body acknowledged that the rulebook may require revisions to avoid future ambiguity.
“The FIA takes all team concerns seriously and has thoroughly investigated the matter,” the statement read. “While no rules were broken, we will work with teams to ensure clearer guidelines moving forward.”
McLaren team principal Andrea Stella expressed disappointment with the outcome but welcomed the FIA’s willingness to review the regulations. “We just want a level playing field. If something needs to be clarified, now’s the time.”
Ferrari, meanwhile, maintained that all actions taken were in full compliance and that the team has nothing to hide.
With the next race fast approaching, this incident is likely to intensify the championship battle—and the scrutiny over rule enforcement.
