Breaking: FIA Announces Late Demotion as Miami GP Final Order Confirmed

In a dramatic turn of events following the 2025 Miami Grand Prix, the FIA has confirmed a late post-race penalty that altered the final classification of the race. The announcement came hours after the chequered flag, catching teams and fans by surprise as the revised results shifted the final points distribution.

 

The penalty was issued to [Driver Name], who originally finished in [position], following a stewards’ review of an on-track incident involving [details of incident or driver involved].
