“We note the findings by the FIA of ‘minor overspend breaches of the financial regulations’ with surprise and disappointment,” read a statement from the team.
“Our 2021 submission was below the cost cap limit, so we need to carefully review the FIA’s findings as our belief remains that the relevant costs are under the 2021 cost cap amount.
“Despite the conjecture and positioning of others, there is of course a process under the regulations with the FIA which we will respectfully follow while we consider all the options available to us,” the statement concluded.
