Red Bull were the only team to have been found guilty of a “minor breach” of F1’s financial regulations foꦚr 2021.

, although according to Red Bull, the majorit💫y of that was due to a tax credit nuance. 

Most of Red Bul🅠l’s overspend came in are♍as such as catering, old parts and covering things like sick pay.

In the end, Red Bꦏull were hit with a fine and a reduction in wind tunn🃏el time.

Ben Sulayem revealed that teams were pushing for hars🎃her punishment.

“I believe that there was a balance betw💦een [the financials] and the sporting penalties,” Ben Sulayem said. “But we learned a lot and a big review is going into it, because who knows in the first year [of the cost cap] what is going to be the outcome?

“If you look at theꦡ other big teams, they will say we have been light on them. [In terms of] the penalty, some of them want to be hanged, they wanted to see blood, and the teams themselves see this as huge🅺 themselves. 

“So where do we draw [the line]? We have to be fair. Do we want to get rid of them or straighten up and not do it? The only thing I would say is that what we did in Seཧptember/October should be done earlier. 

“But as it is the first year, we have learned a lot from it - and we♔ are still learning. It is better to come at me in May and not just in October.”

The FIA presi🔯dent also voiced his frustration about inforಞmation being leaked.

Recently, the FIA have announced that Shaila-Ann Rao has left her role as inter🐼im Secretary General for Motor Sport after s🌟ix months. 

She found herself at the centre of the controvಌersy after Red Bull suspected that Rao - previously employed by Mercedes - had possibly released confidential info𒁏rmation.

"We were in Austria having a meeting of😼 the F1 Commission, and we were already talking about it," he added.

"It was already in the news, but it's frustrating sometimes because𒅌 by the time you finish your meeting, some꧃thing is going out."
