Sebastian Vettel Hungarian GP disqualification: Aston Martin confirm appeal and right of review request

Aston Martin have confirmed they are pressing ahead with an appeal against Sebastian Vettel’s disqualification from second place in the Hungarian GP.

In addition, the team have initiated a right of review request into the decision to exclude their car for a fuel rules breach as they state they “discovered significant new evidence” in the case.

Vettel’s car was disqualified as the FIA technical delegate was unable to take the mandatory 1-litre fuel sample after the race. However, the team argued there was still more fuel left in the car which was unable to be extracted.

In their statement on Thursday night, Aston Martin said their data showed there was 1.74 litres of fuel left in the car after the race.
