Lewis Hamilton will not be handed last year’s world championship crown retrospectively, with Red Bull set to be found only in minor breach - if at all - of the budget cap when the FIA finally publish their auditing findings.
The results of the process are due to be announced on Wednesday, but there is a slight chance that may even be delayed as the governing body consider biding their time on the sensitive issue. They do not wish to be seen to be falling in line with deadlines set by anybody else.
Sportsmail understands that accusations privately made by a number of teams that Red Bull were some £10million over the £114m ceiling will not be borne out when the adjudication is made public. The amount in question is at the lower end of the scale.

One source said the discrepancy could be as little as a million or so, perhaps even less, and is no more
