Overview
- The stewards upheld Alpine's Right of Review and expunged two five-second penalties from Pierre Gasly, restoring his official third place at the Monaco Grand Prix.
- Formula 1's official timekeeping concluded the race timing loops used to log the box‑lane speed limits were measured incorrectly, which led to the original penalties.
- Several other drivers had already served comparable penalties during the race and therefore did not receive the same retroactive remedy, creating inconsistency in race outcomes.
- McLaren and Red Bull have filed notices of intent to appeal the stewards' decision and Mercedes has consulted lawyers, all within the 96‑hour window for appeals.
- The reversal demoted Isack Hadjar from third to fourth and altered points; the dispute raises wider questions about fairness, the Right of Review process, and the finality of race results.
