Fernando Alonso ended in seventh place the Canada Grand Prix… and will continue seventh. There is no sanction For several pilots that were ahead and that were under investigation. The FIA He ignores Fernando Alonso and keeps him in the seventh position, a position that is already very good for the Spanish pilot, but that stays in that, a seventh place.

Fernando Alonso's claim to FIA was for the actions of pilots as Kimi Antonelli, Oscar Piastri and Charles Leclerc They advanced under the security car, something that is prohibited. Aston Martin's pilot requested a review of those actions and a sanction for at least some of them, which would have uploaded some position in this Canada Grand Prix.

But the fia has ignored claims of the Spanish and has decided to maintain the results as they were when crossing the finish line, which was made under that security car when the accident occurred between the two McLaren -piastri and Norris- a few laps from the end of the race.

Only Lando Norris He was sanctioned – with five seconds – once the race ended in Canada, but this punishment in practice has no value, since the British pilot had already abandoned the test for the aforementioned accident with his partner Piastri. Neither the Australian nor Antonelli nor Leclerc received sanction.

According to the explanation of the FIA, “the pilot advanced to other cars after the checkered flag, while the Safety Car signs were still active, after an incident in the finish line that involved car 4 (Lando Norris) and car 81 (Oscar Piastri). While advancing after the checkered flag, it is not unusual, it is prohibited in case of yellow flags, Safety Car or Safety Virtual procedures. While the pilots were aware of the location of the incident, They could not know if emergency equipment or commissioners were being sent to the trackso they must proceed with caution ».

Thus, the FIA ​​determines that this is solved with a simple “warning”: “We have given a warning to the pilot in questionas well as the other competitors ». In addition, they warn that “new infractions can lead to more severe sanctions.”

In short, the FIA It does not attend to the claims of Fernando Alonso and the Spanish pilot remains seventh in the classification of the Canada Grand Prix, a great position taking into account the car that has this season of World Cup in F1.
