Lando Norris and team-mate Oscar Piastri face potentially being disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix for technical infringements.
The skid blocks on both cars were found after the race to be less than the minimum depth. The matter has been referred to the stewards but would normally result in disqualification.
If they are thrown out of the race, Norris, who finished second to Red Bull's Max Verstappen, would be 24 points ahead of both the Dutchman and Piastri going into the penultimate race of the season in Qatar next weekend.
Team principal Andrea Stella's post-race news conference has been delayed and no-one from the team was available to answer media inquiries.
There are a maximum of 58 points available in the final two grands prix with Qatar being a sprint event.
After Qatar, the final race follows in Abu Dhabi on 7 December.
