Gasly loses Monaco podium after exceeding pit lane speed limit

Summary

Pierre Gasly's third-place finish at the Monaco Grand Prix is in jeopardy after being penalized for exceeding the pit lane speed limit. Gasly was found to be 0.4 km/h over the limit during two infringements, dropping him to seventh. Five drivers received similar penalties, with complaints from Alpine prompting a Right of Review hearing scheduled for today. The controversy centers on the timing measurement method, which relies on sensors that record average speed but may not account for deviations in the pit lane geometry. Alpine argues that their telemetry indicates Gasly never exceeded the speed limit.
