SUZUKA, Japan (AP) — The governing body of Formula One has put off until Monday a ruling on whether some teams exceeded a spending cap. The contentious issue comes as Red Bull driver Max Verstappen could win a second straight season title at the Japanese Grand Prix. Verstappen stayed out of the fray but a few rival drivers weighed in. Verstappen says “I’m not really busy with these kind of things .. it’s up to the teams and the FIA.” Verstappen has a whopping 104-point lead over Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc and is 106 ahead of Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez with five races to go.
