What did the Commissioners inspect?
As always on the eve of a race weekend among the documents published by FIA there is also the one relating to which car was drawn at the end of the previous GP to conduct in-depth technical checks compared to what routinely happens on multiple single-seaters after the checkered flag.
At the end of the Monaco GP, the car that came under the Stewards’ magnifying glass was Lando Norris’ McLaren MCL38. The component on which the attention of the FIA delegates was focused was the fuel system, “the low pressure fuel system“ (the petrol pump). To carry out checks accurately the FIA brought this component to the technical center in Valleiry.
Everything has been verified by the Federation was found to comply with the technical regulation. In the last few hours, rumors had been circulating regarding particular attention from the FIA regarding the McLaren fuel pump, rumors which turned out to be unfounded given that the McLaren fuel pump was simply the subject of checks following the extraction at fate.
