Monaco Pitlane Penalty: Alpine Nearly Secured Points, ICA Reversal, Gasly Drops 3 Positions

In a dramatic Grand Prix at Monaco, a pitlane penalty incident rocked the entire F1 world. Pierre Gasly of Alpine Team, who had climbed to third place after completing the race, ultimately had to accept dropping to fifth due to two penalties for exceeding speed limits in the pitlane. This incident not only affected the individual result of the French driver but also changed the temporary standings of the teams, especially Alpine, Red Bull and McLaren. The penalty was initially approved and applied by the stewards, but after Alpine requested a review under Article 14, the parties involved faced a complex chain of events from the race day to when the International Court of Appeal finally issued a ruling.
