Verstappen reveals shocking secret at McLaren – FIA Start Investigation of alleged illegal car
The Formula 1 world was startled this weekend by an unexpected revelation of reigning world championMax Verstappen. Only fifteen minutes after Red Bull had filed an official complaint, theFIAto start a full investigation into the cars ofLando NorrisinOscar Plastri. It is rumor that McLaren may have driven an “illegal car” during the Grand Prix of Italy in Monza. The news spread like an ongoing fire and caused immediate fuss within the international F1 community.
The revelation of Verstappen
According to several sources, Verstappen brought an explosive detail out in the media corner after the race. He suggested that McLaren “found something that does not fit within the current regulations” and that this may explain the recent speed peaks of the team. Although the Dutchman did not give concrete technical specifications, his message sounded clear: there had to be further research.
“We all see the data. There are patterns that simply do not make sense within the lines,” Verstappen would have explained. “It is not my job to judge that, but it is that of the FIA.”
Red Bull’s complaint
Red Bull acted super -fast and submitted an official complaint to the race management less than fifteen minutes later. The document states that certain aerodynamic components and possible innovations in McLaren’s energy recovery system would not correspond to the letter of the law in the technical regulations.
It is unusual that a team submits a complaint immediately after a race. Normally internal analyzes and conversations behind closed doors follow. The fact that Red Bull took this step so openly and quickly indicates that it is strongly convinced to have evidence in their hands.
Response from the FIA
The international motorsport federation did not let grass grow over the business. Within fifteen minutes after receiving the complaint, the FIA announced that it would start a “complete and transparent investigation”. A special technical panel will investigate the McLaren cars and analyze the data from the last weekend.
“We take every accusation of a possible violation of the regulations extremely seriously,” said a spokesperson for the FIA. “The goal is clear: honest competition and equal opportunities for all teams.”
McLaren under pressure
In the meantime, visible tension prevails at McLaren himself. Team chef Andrea Stella stated shortly after the news that the team has “nothing to hide” and will fully cooperate with the FIA. Yet his voice sounded less confident than usual. Norris and Piastri, both of whom were on stage in Monza, have so far abstained from direct comments.
The British press is already speculating about possible consequences. If McLaren is found guilty, this can lead to heavy sanctions: points deduction, disqualification of the Italian Grand Prix or even a longer suspension of certain parts.
Refresal in the paddock
The unveiling of Verstappen and the quick response from the FIA have brought the paddock into turmoil. Fans and analysts fiercely discuss social media. Some praise Verstappen for his honesty and courage to raise the subject, while others accuse him of playing games to influence the title struggle to his advantage.
What the outcome will be, one thing is certain: this incident will overshadow the rest of the season. In the coming weeks, to be exciting, not only on the asphalt, but especially behind the scenes, where politics, power and technology come together in a battle that is at least as intense as the races themselves.
