Mercedes has requested the FIA for a right of review regarding the overturning of Pierre Gasly's penalty from the Monaco Grand Prix. After the Alpine team's successful appeal, Gasly was reinstated to third place despite initially receiving two five-second penalties for exceeding the pit-lane speed limit. Mercedes' George Russell, who was demoted to 12th place due to a drive-through penalty for a similar infraction, lost 15 points in his championship battle with teammate Kimi Antonelli. Team boss Toto Wolff stated that Mercedes wanted to participate in discussions about the ruling and had consulted lawyers for advice.
