MEXICO CITY: Red Bull have been fined $7 million for breaking Formula One鈥檚 budget rules but will not have points deducted from their 2021 total, the sport鈥檚 governing body said Friday.
Red Bull will also be penalized with a 10 percent reduction in permitted aerodynamic research.
The FIA confirmed the team, which carried Max Verstappen to a contentious championship victory over Lewis Hamilton last year, overspent by 拢1.86 million ($2.15 million) in 2021.
The 10 percent cut is in the time they can spend using their wind tunnel or computational fluid dynamics to design their car.
The punishment comes after Red Bull acknowledged they were at fault and entered into a so-called 鈥渁ccepted breach agreement鈥� with the FIA.
