The Federation must analyze two incidents that could give the Argentine pilot an opportunity for trust and go up to the tenth place.
The Netherlands Grand Prix left Franco Colapint only half a second to enter the points zone for the first time in his career in Formula 1. The Argentine completed the race in the 11immediately behind Esteban Ocon, in what was his best performance of the season with Alpine. The minimum difference with French left Pilar’s pilot without the long -awaited point, but Two ongoing investigations could change the final result.
He Zandvoort circuit It was the scene of multiple incidents that keep the teams in suspense. The International Automobile Federation (FIA) currently reviews two situations that could modify the classification: A contact between George Russell and Charles Leclerc in the first laps, and a questionable Yuki Tsunoda maneuver against Pierre Gasly near the end of the race. These investigations could have direct consequences in the final position of Colapinto.

FIA decisions that could modify the GP positions table
The Fia quoted George Russell for his clash with Leclerc in the early stages of the competition. If the Mercedes pilot receives a penalty of 10 seconds -it is involved to those applied to Carlos Sainz and Kimi Antonelli for similar incidents -, he would fall from the room to eleventh place.
On the other hand, Yuki Tsunoda is also under analysis for an illegal maneuver he made against Gasly in the final laps. The Japanese ended in the ninth position, but an eventual sanction would take him out of the points zone.

In the event that both penalties are applied, Franco Colapinto would automatically ascend to the tenth positionthus achieving his first point in Formula 1. The Argentine expressed his frustration after the race: “It was a long and complicated race. I think I had my opportunities, but we lacked better teamwork.”
Although he recognized improvements in his performance, the final result left a bittersweet taste that could change if the FIA decides to sanction the pilots involved in the incidents.
