McLaren have won their appeal against the result of the Monaco Grand Prix after a controversy over multiple incorrect pit-lane speeding penalties.
The victory means Alpine's Pierre Gasly loses the podium he was awarded after an appeal by the French team that overturned two five-second penalties.
That means Gasly, who finished third on the road, is dropped back to the seventh place he received in the official results.
Red Bull's Isack Hadjar is returned to third place and McLaren's Oscar Piastri fourth for the race which took place on 7 June.
However, the verdict does not fully address the multiple effects of a series of pit-lane speeding penalties.
These affected the results of many drivers in the race, including Mercedes' George Russell.
The Briton was dropped out of the points for a penalty for not correctly serving a pit-lane speeding penalty that he should not have received.
There were multiple speeding penalties because Formula 1 had incorrectly measured the length of the pit lane, meaning cars' average speeds were adjudged wrongly to be too high.
