Gasly's Monaco third place reinstated after appeal

Gasly's Monaco third place reinstated after appeal

Pierre Gasly was reinstated to third place in the Monaco Grand Prix on May 26, 2024, after stewards overturned two penalties he received. The penalties were for exceeding the pit-lane speed limit during the race. Gasly had initially finished third but was demoted to fourth after receiving a five-second penalty for the pit-lane infringement. A subsequent five-second penalty for a separate pit-lane speeding incident further dropped him down the order. Alpine, Gasly's team, lodged an appeal against these decisions. The stewards reviewed the evidence and decided to rescind both penalties, restoring Gasly to his podium position. This decision marked a significant turnaround for the French driver, allowing him to secure a podium finish at the prestigious street circuit.
