Intro:

Red Bell took their appeal to the FIA's International Court of Appeal in Paris, who heard the case on Monday, before revealing their verdict on Tuesday morning.

"The Court, after having heard the parties and examined their submissions, decided to uphold the decision number 56 of the stewards by which they decided to exclude Infiniti Red Bull Racing's car number three from the results of the 2014 Australian Grand Prix," a statement on the FIA's website read.

Script:

Red Bull's appeal against Daniel Ricciardo's disqualification in the Australian Grand Prix has been rejected, the FIA has confirmed.

Race stewards disqualified Ricciardo for violating Formula One's new laws on fuel usage.

The ruling from the International Court of Appeal means that the Australian won't get back the 18 points he otherwise would have scored with a second-place finish in Melbourne.

Had the court accepted Red Bull's appeal, Ricciardo would have 30 points, enough to put him third behind Mercedes pair Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton.
