Racing Point F1 team reprimanded for using brake ducts again

The Racing Point Formula 1 team has been r🎀eprimanded over the continued use of its controversial rear brake ducts during the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix.
Racing Point were docked 15 constructors’ championship points and fined €400,000 for breaching F1’s sporting regulations because the principle designer ꧑was Mercedes and not Racing Point.
The S🌺ilverstone-based outfit is being allowed to continue using the brake ducts as they are𝓀 legal from the view of the technical regulations.
The FIA noted that Racing Point had used the same design yet 🍎again during Sunday’s 70th Anniversary Grand Prix at Silverstone and subsequently summoned the team before the stewards.
A team representative was called to see the stewards following a strong double points haul for Racing Point𒊎, with Lance Stroll head🅰ing teammate Nico Hulkenberg home in sixth place.
Racing Point was handed another reprimand for continuing to use its disputed brake duct design as they break the sporting regulations, adding to the reprimands they were given after the Styrian, Hungarian aꦰnd British Grands Prix.
“The stewards of the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix believe that is important for the orderly conduct of the sport that the interpretation of the regulatio💎ns by the stewards be reasonably consistent,” the stewards said in a statement.
“The stewards therefore join the decision 🍨of the special panel of stewards and incorporate herein by reference, their findings of fact, reasoning and the reasoning behind their choice of penalties.
“This present♏ decision should be read as entirely consistent with and drawing the same conclusions asꦐ Decision Document four (incl. Doc. five) of the special panel.
“The Stewards therefore find that BWT Racing Point F1 Team is in breach of appendix six of the 2020 FIA F1 Sporting Regulations and ไorder a Reprimand for the Team, operating car 18 and car 27.”
