In a shocking turn of events at the Saudi Grand Prix, the FIA has unleashed a bombshell decision regarding Max Verstappen’s penalty, causing uproar in the F1 world. The reigning world champion was slapped with a five-second penalty for a contentious move that saw him leave the track and gain an advantage by holding off Oscar Piastri at the first corner.

The heated rivalry between Verstappen and Piastri reached a boiling point during their intense battle, with Verstappen ultimately being penalized for failing to give Piastri enough room to pass. The FIA’s decision document highlighted that Verstappen “gained a lasting advantage that was not given back,” sparking debates and controversies among fans and experts alike.

Despite the outrage from Red Bull boss Christian Horner, who vehemently opposed the penalty, Verstappen chose to remain tight-lipped about the situation. However, the FIA revealed that the penalty could have been even more severe, drawing comparisons to Racing Bulls star Liam Lawson’s 10-second penalty later in the race.

The official FIA document dissected the incident in detail, stating, “Car 81 had its front axle at least alongside the mirror of car 1 prior to and at the apex of corner 1 when trying to overtake car 1 on the inside.” This revelation shed light on the intricacies of the ruling and the rationale behind the penalty imposed on Verstappen.

The FIA’s late change to the Saudi GP order sent shockwaves through the F1 community, with a special clause coming to light and adding another layer of complexity to the already intense race weekend. The FIA’s decision has reignited the debate on fair play and sportsmanship in Formula 1, leaving fans and teams alike on edge as the season unfolds.
