F1: McLaren Penalty in the Hungarian Grand Prix (Budapest)

McLaren-Mercedes have withdrawn their appeal against a points penalty the team received during last month's Hungarian Grand Prix, the International Automobile Federation (FIA) announced on Tuesday.

The Formula 1 team were deducted 15 points due to them in the constructors championship after Fernando Alonso was found to have voluntarily impeded team-mate Lewis Hamilton in qualifying.

Hamilton went on to win the race, with Alonso finishing fourth at the Hungaroring.
