A number of recent reports have alleged that at least two teams had gone over the 2022 cost ca🍎p, though F1’s governing body the FIA has moved to shoot down the rumours. 

Speaking ahead🍬 of this weekend’s Hungarian Grand Prix, Sky Sports’ David Croft reported that it is still “too early” to know which t𓂃eams, if any, have broken the financial regulations. 

“Yes, it’s definitely a concern,” Hamilton told Sky F1.&nb𝐆sp;

“I mean, itཧ wasn’t really a big punishment last time so there’s no real [deterrent].

“There’ll be people that will probably go for it ꦡagain, and know they’re just gonna get slapped on the wristꩲ.”

Red Bull we🌸re hit with a $7million fine and a reduction in aerodynamic testing time over a 12 month period for breaching the 2021 cost cap. 

F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has c🔯alled on the FIA to impose sporting sanctions, rather than financial penalti💜es, to any teams found guilty of offences. 

Asked what punishment he feels would be appropriate for any confirmed breaches, Hamilton replied: "I’m 🍰not going to say what it should be, it’s not my job to do that. 

“We have people in place that are supposed t💮o police that, but it dꦚoesn’t surprise me. It was not a big penalty before, so…” 

Hamilton also took a swipe at the rate of upgrades Red Bull have brought to their 2023 challenger, with the RB19 featuring revised sidepods in🤪 Hungary. 

“I’ve hearꦰd that Red Bull might have an upgrade package this weekend, once again,” he said. “So we’lܫl have to see. They seem to be continuously bringing upgrades on their car.”
