FIA Disqualifies Verstappen After Post-Race Inspection Reveals Technical Breach

In a stunning development, the FIA has officially disqualified Max Verstappen following a post-race inspection that revealed a significant technical violation. The decision, confirmed late Saturday night, has shaken the Formula 1 world and significantly impacted the final results of the Grand Prix.

Verstappen, who had initially secured a podium finish, was found to be in breach of technical regulations concerning the car’s floor and ride height. A thorough investigation by FIA stewards, prompted by raised suspicions, concluded that Red Bull Racing’s RB20 did not meet required specifications.

As a consequence, Verstappen has been stripped of his finishing position—a serious blow to both his championship prospects and Red Bull’s overall campaign. While the team has not yet issued an official statement, sources indicate that an appeal is being considered.

This disqualification is among the most notable penalties of the season and may have far-reaching implications for the championship race. Reactions across the Formula 1 community have been mixed, with some applauding the FIA’s firm stance on regulations, while others criticize the timing and consistency of the enforcement.

With emotions running high in the paddock, attention now turns to Red Bull and Verstappen as they weigh their next move.
