"I prefer not to talk right now,” Sainz told Sky. “Honestly, I am too disappointed and🔯 I am going🌞 to say bad things.

“It is the most unfꦰair penalty I have seen in my life.

“I prefer to have a conversation with them and then come talk to you guys because right now I ♔cannot do it.”

Under the FIA's International Sporting Code, competitors can request a right of review up to 14 days after a stewards' ruling if “a significan♛t and relevant new element is discovered which was unavailable to the parties seeking the review at the time of the decision concerned”.

Ferrari have two key reasons for their r𓆉ight of review.

The stewards didn’t investigate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Logan Sargeant’s crash into the back ꧋of Nyck de Vries into Tu🗹rn 1.

While 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pierre Gasly got away with a penalty despite putting his teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Ocon into the wall - also on the same lap.

In the case of the Alpines, they were able to discuss the incident with the stewards after the race, but Ferrari w🐻ere handed the penalꩵty almost immediately, giving Sainz no chance to plead his innocence .

Speaking to select media including wuqian0821.com on Thursday, Vasseur revealed that Ferrari want the case to be𒈔 looked at again.

“We did🔯 the petition꧙ for the review of the case,” he said. “We sent it today to the FIA.

“As we are discussing with the FIA I don’t want to discuss any details of this discussion. The only thing is that ab👍out Ocon-Gasly, also Sargeant-De Vries, Turn 1 - the reaction of the stew🌠ards wasn’t the same.

“The process is that first they will have a look at our petition to see if they ꦜcan re-open the case and then we will have a second hearing abou𒁃t the decision itself. 

“What we can expect is to have an open discussion with them but also for the good of t🤡he sport - to avoid having these kind of decisions when you have three cases on the same corner but not the sameꦓ decision.”
