Red Bull are expected to escape a sporting penalty over the 2021 budget cap, with the team now understood to be guilty of a 'procedural' breach at most.

The development, which comes following the latest round of talks with the FIA on Monday, removes any threat to Max Verstappen's maiden world title last year.

The governing body is due to issue compliance certificates for the 2021 cap this week.
