Monaco Grand Prix result changed AGAIN as amended podium announced after FIA hearing

The result of the 2026 F1 Monaco Grand Prix has been changed AGAIN after Alpine was successful in its appeal early on Friday.

The team appealed after a wild race in the principality which saw five drivers penalised for pitlane speeding on a total of six occasions.

Worst impacted was Alpine star Pierre Gasly, who picked up a pair of five-second penalties which relegated him from a podium position of third all the way down to P7. Unsurprisingly he said the result had left him heartbroken.

The appeal process began on Thursday in Barcelona with a right to review hearing, at which Alpine needed to prove there was significant new evidence.

The team passed that threshold thanks to the stunning revelation from Formula One Management (FOM) that the distance used for calculating official times was "inaccurate and overestimated the speed" Gasly was moving at.

That shock news paved the way for a second stage of the process, at which Gasly's penalties were reviewed and reassessed.

On Friday morning the result of that hearing came through via an Alpine statement, with the Frenchman now restored back to his original podium position with his penalties removed, and Red Bull's Isack Hadjar demoted to fourth.

The Alpine statement read: "We welcome the decision made by the FIA to deem our Right To Review as admissible following the final classification of last weekend's Monaco Grand Prix.

"As a result the Stewards have rescinded the two five-second penalties imposed on Car #10, which reinstates the team's third-place finish.

"We would like to thank the FIA and Formula One Management for its transparency and co-operation throughout the Right Of Review process and for reaching this decision."

The result now looks like this with Gasly restored to P3 and Hadjar dropping to P4:

Will any other positions be changed?

Of course Gasly was not the only driver penalised for the exact same offence on Sunday - Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari), George Russell (Mercedes), Oscar Piastri (McLaren) and Franco Colapinto (Alpine) were also given penalties.

It appears unlikely that any of their penalties will be reassessed, with Alpine and Gasly the only right to review being requested.
