A first meeting today at 3 pm was obviously not enough to unravel the problem. The FIA wants to see clearly, also because Mercedes and Red Bull – with Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen – are playing for a World Championship. And so he summoned one new meeting at 18 with the representatives of the two teams and the commissioners, according to what is learned from Sky Deutschland.
Brackley’s team brought to the attention of the commissioners theonboard by Verstappen in his defense against Hamilton at turn 4 of the 48th San Paolo Grand Prix. Certainly a tough defense, which however the commissioners judged to be correct at first glance. Race director Michael Masi however, he admitted that he had not seen theonboard of # 33, which gave Mercedes the pretext to ask for a review of what happened. The outcome of this meeting is expected shortly and – therefore – the admissibility of Mercedes’ request. Should the stewards retrace their steps, Toto Wolff’s team could officially appeal against the stewards’ decision. And at that point the penalty Verstappen would be a more concrete hypothesis.
