Unconfirmed
How firm is this
The wording hedges - this is a claim, not a confirmed move. Treat it as unconfirmed until a team or the FIA says otherwise.
How far to trust it
Crash.net is a first-tier outlet - the tier that generally does its own reporting. We rate every outlet we track on how often it reports a story first and how often it holds up.
Who else has it
Crash.net is the only outlet we track carrying this. Nobody else has picked it up yet, so there is nothing to corroborate it against.
