Haas lodges intention to appeal unsuccessful Force India protest
ABU DHABI -- Haas has lodged its intention to appeal its unsuccessful protest of Force India's entry.
Haas had been protesting the legality of Force India's cars based on the regulations around what constitutes being a constructor, but its case was dismissed on Saturday in a lengthy verdict. After notifying the stewards, it now has 96 hours to lodge an appeal formally.
The case revolved around Force India's rescue from administration earlier this year and the way it was effectively rebooted in August. The team, formerly known officially as Sahara Force India, was re-entered into the championship as Racing Point Force India, but started from zero in the constructors' championship.
