Red Bull were fined following an attempt to remove McLaren’s grid marker for Lando Norris.
Red Bull was fined €50,000 because a team member tried to interfere with a marker for Lando Norris’s grid position at the United States Grand Prix.
The team member entered a restricted area near Norris’s grid position, ignoring marshals’ instructions.
Half of the fine was suspended for the rest of the 2025 season, provided the incident is not repeated.
The Red Bull team member was attempting to remove tape on the pit wall marking Norris’s grid position.
McLaren uses tape as a visual aid for Norris’s grid placement, which is not against the rules.
Red Bull has a history of similar incidents, prompting McLaren to use stronger tape to prevent interference.
Red Bull’s team principal called it a misunderstanding and stated they would address it in the future.
