The FIA agreed to consider Alpine's request.

      According to information from journalists accredited at the Barcelona-Catalonia Grand Prix, the FIA has agreed with Alpine's arguments and is ready to satisfy the factory team Renault's right to review the results of the race in Monaco.

      After the finish, Steve Nielsen, managing director of Alpine F1, stated: "This is not a protest, not an appeal – it is a somewhat different procedure that allows us to gather all available data and evidence and, together with the FIA, fully understand how the stewards concluded that we violated the rules by exceeding the speed limit in the pit lane. We believe we did not violate anything..."

      Accordingly, the team managed to convince the stewards that it possesses some new important evidence, in its view, proving that the penalties imposed on Pierre Gasly for exceeding the speed limit in the pit lane were issued in error.

      For example, this could be either compelling evidence that the actual speed of the Alpine car in the pit lane was less than 60 km/h, or an attempt will be made to convince the FIA that the speed measurement systems used during the weekend provided not entirely accurate readings.

      Currently, the process of reviewing the information provided by the team is already underway, but it is better to refrain from predictions about its outcome.
