Martin Brundle rubbished the idea that an overspend of several million points could still be regarded as a "minor" breach of Formula 1 cost cap rules.
That was the wording the FIA used last week when they accused Red Bull of having overspent in the 2021 season – a claim the team has denied. Under the current legislation, a "minor" breach is could constitute anything up to five per cent over the cap.
But that could be anything up to £5million or £6m which is, of course, not an insignificant amount of cash. That is why Brundle thinks the rules need to be rewritten so that a potential overspend of millions cannot be referred to as a "minor" breach.
