Aston Martin requests investigation into Alonso’s penalty.

Aston Martin requests review of penalty imposed on Fernando Alonso after Formula 1 race in China. Alonso received a 10-second penalty and three penalty points for a collision with Carlos Sainz of Ferrari during the battle for third place. Although Alonso retired from the race, the penalty points were added to his previous total. Aston Martin and Ferrari have been summoned to attend a virtual hearing on Friday morning before the Miami Grand Prix. The hearing will be divided into two parts, with the first part focused on determining if there is new evidence that was not available at the time of the initial decision. If such evidence is found, a second part of the hearing will be scheduled, and other stakeholders may request permission to attend.
