Pierre Gasly reinstated to Monaco GP podium amid legal challenge

The FIA reversed its earlier ruling at the Monaco Grand Prix, restoring Pierre Gasly to third place on the podium. Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) kept the win, Oscar Piastri (McLaren) moved up to second and Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) fell to fourth, while Max Verstappen (Red Bull) finished sixth.

Red Bull and McLaren lodged formal notices of intent to appeal the decision, triggering a 96‑hour review period. Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff said the team is "analyzing all legal options" and would not hesitate to take judicial action if necessary. Gasly expressed relief, describing the episode as "an emotional roller‑coaster" and thanking his Alpine team. The controversy reshapes the constructors and drivers standings and adds pressure ahead of the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona.
