The very firm way the FIA dismissed Haas’s attempt to get the United States Grand Prix result changed suggested the whole thing was a waste of time. Here are our writers’ take on what Haas might have been trying to achieve and whether the review process is being abused
A four-and-a-half-page document was necessary to reject Haas’s petition for a right of review of the United States Grand Prix result, highlighting the waste of time this process was. Haas’s case relied heavily on physical evidence of track-limits offenses, but most of it was not considered significant or relevant. It’s unclear if Haas was trying to make a point about track limits in Formula 1 or boost their constructors’ championship hopes. Some argue that F1’s protest and appeal rules should include sanctions for misuse. Overall, the case didn’t have a chance of succeeding as there was no evidence of an issue with the publishing of the classification, and the evidence presented was already known to the stewards. This attempt to revisit an already resolved matter was seen as a giant waste of time.
