The FIA re-investigates the 2021 F1 finale

In the early morning of January 14, Beijing time, the FIA announced that it would conduct a serious investigation into the final battle of 2021 F1, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and then announce the final results of the investigation in March. This means that the 2021 F1 Drivers Championship, which has already been settled, is suspenseful again.

Verstappen won the overall title of the year

On the night of December 12 last year, Beijing time, there was a dramatic scene near the end of the F1 season in Abu Dhabi: due to a serious accident in the car, the safety car came out to lead the race, and The Mercedes Team driver Hamilton, who was temporarily ranked first in the race and had a large lead, could only watch his advantages disappear. Red Bull Racing driver Verstappen, who was in second place at the time, seized the opportunity to enter the station to change tires and quickly chased Hamilton. With just one lap left, the race returned to normal and Verstappen took advantage of the new tyres to finally finish the overtaking, winning the race and the annual championship. But the controversy of this race is whether the safety car should lead until the end of the race. Even if it does not lead to the end of the race, then does Verstappen have any violations in the state of safety car leadership? Despite protests from Hamilton and Mercedes after the race, it ultimately failed.

On January 13 this year, under the leadership of the new FIA president Mohammed bin Surayem, a new investigation into the controversy over the race began. It is reported that the investigation will start on January 19, starting with the use of safety vehicles, during which the opinions of various teams and drivers will be consulted, and then after all the investigations are completed, the final decision will be announced at the World Motor Sport Council in Bahrain on March 18.
