I think that still needs approval of the stewards.
You are incorrect.
Looks like approval was needed and granted
changed during parc ferme
From the document:
Car 01: Floor assembly (without skids and plank)
Floor keel panel
All above parts have been replaced with the approval of the FIA technical delegate following a written request from the team concerned, this being in accordance with Article 40.3 of the 2024 Formula One Sporting Regulations.
I don’t understand how or why approval would’ve been needed, unless Red Bull asked just to be safe?
The damage should’ve been covered under normally allowed repairs during parc ferme rules:
I’ll agree g iii could fit. If it was an out lap, or if he went into the pits at the end of the lap, the time wouldn’t have been deleted, and although time was lost, was it “significant”?
And 40.3 specifies for repairs not covered in 40.2. So no harm in asking anyway, certainly better than a DQ.
The day I understand the FiA will be the day I know I’ve lost it.
You’re definitely right that there’s no harm in asking compared to a DQ.
