Article D9.9.2
Appeal of Cost Cap Adjudication Panel Decision
Chapter: D9
In Simple Terms
If a team is found to have broken F1's cost cap rules, they can appeal the decision made against them. This gives teams a chance to challenge the penalty in a higher process if they believe the decision was unfair.
- Only the team that was penalized can file an appeal
- The appeal must be against a final Cost Cap Adjudication Panel decision
- This provides teams with a second chance to dispute cost cap violations
- The appeal process is separate from the initial cost cap investigation
Official FIA Text
An appeal of a final Cost Cap Adjudication Panel decision may be made by the parties who are the subject of a case.
