FIA sets hearing date for Audi's Monza appeal

The FIA has confirmed that the International Court of Appeal will hear Audi's appeal against the final result of the Italian Grand Prix. Audi challenged the outcome of a post-race investigation involving Yuki Tsunoda, who finished tenth at Monza in early September while deputising for Liam Lawson at Racing Bulls.

Tsunoda had been flagged for a potential starting infringement after lining up on the wrong side of the grid at a red flag restart. Race control called an aborted start, and the stewards ultimately found that the race director, not Tsunoda, had caused the extra formation lap, so he avoided a penalty. Gabriel Bortoleto finished behind Tsunoda and just outside the points, and Audi then appealed the stewards' decision.

The hearing is scheduled for 09:00 local time in Paris on 25 November 2026.
