F1 LIVE: Red Bull break Belgian GP curfew as driver gets huge penalty | F1 | Sport
Red Bull were confirmed to have broken the F1 curfew, with teams not allowed to work on their vehicles outside of permitted times.
Both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez would have hoped for more pace at Spa, prompting late work on their cars, but the team have avoided any punishment.
Teams are allowed two exemptions throughout the season, with Red Bull taking their first indiscretion in Belgium.
A statement from the FIA read: “Last night team personnel of the Oracle Red Bull Racing team, who are associated with the operation of the car, were within the confines of the circuit during the eleven-and-a-half-hour period which commenced at 22:00 on 26 July, fourteen and a half hours before the scheduled start time of P3 and ends three hours before the scheduled start time of P3 at 09:30 on 27 July.
£This was the first of the two individual exceptions permitted for the Oracle Red Bull Racing team during the 2024 Formula One Championship season and therefore no action should be taken.”
