- Alpine’s Otmar Szafnauer rejects calls to revise regulations
- Haas and Alfa Romeo also understood to oppose change
The efforts of Formula One’s biggest teams to raise the sport’s budget cap are an attempt to claw back an unfair advantage and indicative of poor planning, according to the Alpine team principal, Otmar Szafnauer.
With the cap intended to level the playing field, Szafnauer insists teams are using claims of inflationary pressure as a smokescreen to spend more looking for performance and said that he and others will attempt to prevent any regulation change.
