The FIA and FOM have taken up the option with Pirelli for it to remain the official tyre supplier in #F1 until the end of 2028.

[Jon Noble @NobleF1]

These were the four elements that Alpine put forward as 'significant' and new evidence not available to stewards at time of initial decision.

a. That the FIA and FOM, but not the Race Stewards, were aware in advance of the race that there
was an issue with the timing loops in the pit lane.

b. That Alpine had data with demonstrated that the driver of Car 10 (Pierre Gasly) activated the pin
lane speed limiter in advance of entry into the pit land and did not exceed the pit lane speed limit.

c. A witness statement from Pierre Gasly that he took a cautious approach before entering the pit
lane having been warned by his engineers.

d. FOM, as Official Timekeeping Supplier to the Competition, provided evidence that the distance
used in calculating the F1 Official Timing (and hence the pit lane speed) was inaccurate and
overestimated the speed of Car 10.

🚨 Alpine has secured an official right of review hearing over Pierre Gasly's speeding penalties from the Monaco GP. #F1

Fascinating line in document detailing new evidence...

Good morning.

F1 manufacturers and the FIA have agreed to stagger the shift to 60/40 ICE/battery power split over next two years.

So 20kW increase to ICE next year before 50kW lift for 2028. Means 58/42 split next year. #F1.

Alex Albon will race with a special Nigel Mansell inspired helmet design in the #BarcelonaGP to mark him beating the 1992 champion’s record for most Williams starts.

It will be race 96 for the Albon/Williams partnership this weekend. #F1.

Monaco exposed another weakness with the Aston Martin package as Alonso and Stroll suffered a ‘chronic’ balance issue in low speed corners. #F1.

That’s my Christmas present sorted. 😂

Simulator company Dynisma, whose products are used by a lot of #F1 teams, have just released a new compact version - the DMG-S- that doesn’t require a bespoke building to house it.

Wonder if it will fit in my office? 🤔

Alpine's petition for a right of review hearing over Pierre Gasly's pitlane speeding offences in Monaco will be heard on Thursday at 1pm CET.

First part of video conference will be to decide if Alpine has a “significant and relevant new element" that was not available to the stewards at the time they took their decision. #F1

Charles Leclerc’s late crash in Monaco has put a focus on Ferrari’s braking system.

Here is a dive into how the roots of what has played out are interlinked with the all-new 2026 rules. #F1.

Ahead of the expected confirmation later today, the FIA’s verdict that Red Bull has the best #F1 engine and Mercedes is allowed to upgrade the one that has won every race has a lot of implications…

It’s not being announced until tomorrow, but #F1’s ADUO ruling is in… and there are many in the paddock surprised by it.

A sensational lap from Kimi Antonelli in taking pole position for the Monaco Grand Prix today… and fascinating to see first hand the mental exhaustion at play as he sat almost in a trance like state as he waited for the others to join him in the post-quali press conference. #F1.

[Jon Noble @NobleF1]

Kimi Antonelli’s pole margin in Monaco was 0.043 seconds.

Ahead of the weekend, the predicted gains from its trick rear wing was 0.045 to 0.05s. 🤔

Interesting comments from Audi's CEO this morning about plans to bring V8s back to #F1.... and what it does not want to see grand prix racing drop.
