Mercedes has officially requested the FIA review the results of the Monaco Grand Prix.<\/p>\n
It has submitted a Right of Review request with the governing body. This is the same process Alpine used to reverse Pierre Gasly<\/a> two penalties in the race, moving him from seventh place in the initial classification to third.<\/p>\n Separately, McLaren and Red Bull previously served notice of their intention to appeal the decision by the stewards.<\/p>\n The outcome of the race is being disputed after the stewards admitted in their verdict on Gasly that pit lane speeding penalties were issued incorrectly. The stewards said this happened because the pit lane length was measured as being 77 metres shorter than it actually was.<\/p>\n RaceFans understands the stewards\u2019 admission is one of the grounds Mercedes intends to use to challenge the race result, along with the fact Gasly\u2019s penalty was reversed.<\/p>\n Five drivers received pit lane speeding penalties during the race including Gasly, who received two, Russell and McLaren driver Oscar Piastri<\/a>.<\/p>\n Gasly did not serve either of his penalties during the race eight days ago. The stewards cancelled both following a hearing last Thursday.<\/p>\n Advert | Become a RaceFans supporter and go ad-free<\/a><\/p>\n Unlike Gasly, Russell entered his pit box after receiving his five-second penalty, which meant he should have served it during the race. He was therefore issued a harsher drive-through penalty, which drivers are required to serve within three laps. When Russell served that penalty with seven laps to go he fell from third place to 14th.<\/p>\n Piastri also served his five-second time penalty during the race. The removal of Gasly\u2019s penalties dropped him from fourth place to fifth in the final classification.<\/p>\n Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff said last weekend the team had spoken to its lawyers regarding the stewards\u2019 decision to overturn Gasly\u2019s penalty. However he indicated he was doubtful of the team\u2019s chance of success.<\/p>\n \u201cDo we think that we realistically have a position, a chance of reverting the result? I don\u2019t think so,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cBut we definitely have to give it a go if we see that there is a millimetre of chance to do so and bring him back to whatever it was \u2013 P4 [or] P3.\u201d<\/p>\n Russell\u2019s team mate Andrea Kimi Antonelli<\/a> won the race.<\/p>\n The last two Right of Review requests brought by Formula 1 teams have been successful. Before Alpine\u2019s win last week, Williams also succeeded in in challenging Carlos Sainz Jnr\u2019s<\/a> penalty during last year\u2019s Dutch Grand Prix. However, as Sainz served that penalty in the race, the stewards ruled it could not be overturned.<\/p>\n Advert | Become a RaceFans supporter and go ad-free<\/a><\/p>\n Previous Right of Review decisions<\/p>\n Date of decision 21\/6\/2019 5\/7\/2020 2\/5\/2021 29\/7\/2021 9\/8\/2021 19\/11\/2021 28\/10\/2022 19\/3\/2023 18\/4\/2023 2\/7\/2023 9\/11\/2023 5\/5\/2024 26\/10\/2024 13\/9\/2025 12\/6\/2026 Mercedes This article will be updated<\/p>\n
