Ferrari Seeks Compensation and Answers in F1 Damage Controversy

Ferrari will have a private discussion with stakeholders, including Liberty Media and F1, regarding compensation for the damage caused to Carlos Sainz's car during the Las Vegas GP. The incident, which destroyed the chassis, power unit, and energy store of Sainz's SF-23, raises questions about the yellow and red flag procedures. The crash also impacts Ferrari's budget cap spending, as additional costs will be incurred for spare parts and flying an extra chassis to Abu Dhabi. Team principal Frederic Vasseur plans to raise the issue of damage from incidents beyond the team's control being excluded from the budget cap.
