Alpine is fighting back after Pierre Gasly was stripped of a Monaco Grand Prix podium, requesting a Right of Review from the FIA. Gasly finished P3 on track, but two separate pit lane speeding penalties, totaling 10 seconds, demoted him to seventh.

He initially moved to fourth, then third after George Russell's late penalty.

Gasly expressed his heartbreak, stating he activated his speed limiter well before the line on both occasions and felt the team had done everything correctly. Alpine’s formal request seeks to overturn the decision, arguing that new evidence may exist to reconsider the penalties. This review could potentially shake up the Monaco results and impact Alpine's standing in the Constructors' Championship, adding another layer of drama to an already wild race weekend.
