The FIA has declared a complaint by the Stroll team admissible and noted that several infringements of exceeding the track limits have not been correctly evaluated: “These penalties will be applied to the order of arrival”
The order of arrival for the Austrian GP could change. It is the effect of the acceptance by the FIA of an official protest by Aston Martin against the order of arrival, in particular with reference to the possible failure to sanction numerous track limits not correctly evaluated by the race direction. Aston Martin probably counts on allowing Alonso and Stroll to gain positions in the final race standings.

The FIA has communicated that it is carrying out an examination of the list of canceled lap times provided to the stewards by the race directors. It was determined that some of these violations would warrant a fine that had not previously been enforced at the time the provisional standings were released. “These penalties will be reflected in the final classification,” reads the FIA statement. This GP was particularly demanding for the marshals, who analyzed and often canceled lap times due to exceeding the track limit, especially at turns 9 and 10.
