Lewis Hamilton says it is a ‘concern’ that some teams could be tempted to breach the cost cap rules if the punishments are not enough of a deterrent

Lewis Hamilton says it is a ‘concern’ that some teams could be tempted to breach the cost cap rules if the punishments are not enough of a deterrent

Christian Horner has revealed Red Bull were “several million” below the F1 cost cap in 2022, amid ongoing fieldwork from the FIA ​​​​into last year’s financial submissions from the teams.

Last year, Red Bull were found guilty of a “minor overspend” for the 2021 campaign and received a $7m fine plus a 10 per cent reduction to their wind tunnel time for this season.

Reports ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix claimed at least two F1 teams broke the cost cap last year, but Sky Sports News understands those allegations are completely unfounded.

The cost cap was introduced for the 2021 season and the current fieldwork is looking at the 2022 season, when the budget cap was $140m. The cap is $135m for this season and the following two campaigns up to and including 2025.

“Last year, Max [Verstappen] damaged one front wing and Checo [Perez] had a crash in Montreal, and again we had a very limited amount of development on the car,” Horner told SkySports F1.

“So we were several million below the cap last year, and because accident damage and development – ​​they’re huge costs.

“Obviously this year, the biggest handicap we have is that lack of wind tunnel time, it’s significantly less runs in a week than any of our competitors, so we have to be very disciplined on where we focus our development.”

On his thoughts about people who think Red Bull haven’t been punished enough this year after breaching the cost cap in 2021, Horner answered: “Believe me the lack of wind tunnel time we have compared to our competitors is a massive compromise. If wind tunnels don’t count, why don’t we get rid of them?

“It’s easy to throw shade when you’re not performing. It’s one of the things in F1 that will always continue to happen. I’m just incredibly proud of the job that our team is doing with the constraints and handicap we have to be performing at the level we have this year.”

Wolff: We need to stop any breach of the cost cap

Lewis Hamilton has admitted he is “concerned” about potential breaches while George Russell says repeat offenders should be punished more harshly.

Toto Wolff says the cost cap auditors are communicating with the teams about their submissions.

“They came back with tons of questions to lots of teams and that shows how robust the process is, which is good,” said Wolff.

“Strong auditors are beneficial for F1. We need to stop any kind of unintentional or intentional breach of the cost cap. It’s like technical and sporting regulations.

“The big teams have thousands of people and various projects – commercial and non-commercial. For us it’s a bit easier because we have everything in one entity. The employees are all in one place and you can see where they have been attributed.

“It becomes more complex when you have more variety of subsidiaries. I’ve never been shy of saying with the 2026 regulations we should get rid of all of that overall.

“In the real world, it’s quite a challenge because we are making revenue and money with our engineering projects. That means we cannot assign a person who is working in F1, not even for a minute, into non-F1. But I think it’s the right thing to do for the sport to say ‘this is F1 and this is not F1’. The moment someone spends 10 seconds on an F1 project you should be fully in F1. That’s the way we need to go.”

FIA responds to cost cap speculation

An FIA spokesperson said: “We would like to reiterate the ongoing process preceding financial certification regulation for the teams – none of which have been informed of their certification status.

“The auditing fieldwork is still ongoing and is scheduled to conclude in the upcoming weeks, after which there will be a period required for the finalization of the review.

“There is not, and has never been, a specific deadline for certification, and any suggestions of delays to this process or potential breaches are completely unfounded – the Cost Cap Administration will formally communicate its findings according to the procedure set out in the Financial Regulations.

“The timeframe is intentionally not fixed in order not to prejudice the robustness and the effectiveness of the review.”
