   Here's the FIA basically admitting that they got it wrong:   
      
   'Formula 1’s governing body is to revise its racing guidelines following   
   a meeting with drivers at the Mexico City Grand Prix.   
      
   The move comes after drivers questioned the decision to penalise   
   McLaren’s Lando Norris following a controversial incident with Red   
   Bull’s Max Verstappen in last Sunday’s United States Grand Prix.   
   The FIA said in the drivers’ briefing in Mexico on Friday, sources in   
   the meeting have told BBC Sport, that it would come up with revised   
   wording to cover the specifics of the incident and present it to the   
   drivers for approval later this season.   
      
   The FIA did not give details as to what would change, but the admission   
   came in the context of a discussion about the tactics Verstappen had   
   employed to keep his position and whether he should have been penalised.'
