The Haas Formula 1 team led by German driver Nico Hülkenberg has lodged a protest against the classification of the Australian Grand Prix.
The Formula 1 team Haas around the German driver Nico Hulkenberg has lodged a protest against the scoring of the Australian Grand Prix.
This is from a document from Motorsports-world association Fia. Initially, it was officially unclear what exactly this protest refers to.
It can be assumed that the US racing team will take action against the rating because Hülkenberg before the last race interruption in Melbourne was in fourth position due to the third red flag. However, after a chaotic last lap after a restart with several accidents, the race management decided to evaluate the Grand Prix with the status before the last red flag. After this rating, the 35-year-old Hülkenberg was seventh.
