All 10 Formula One teams complied with the cost cap for the second year in a row in 2023, but procedural breaches were identified for engine makers Alpine and Honda, the governing FIA said on Wednesday.

FYI, they did not spend over the cap but rather did not fill the paperwork correctly or on time:

"The CCA [Cost Cap Administration] confirms that although Alpine Racing SAS and HRC [Honda Racing Corporation] have both been found to be in procedural breach, neither have exceeded the cost cap level," the FIA said in a statement.

The procedural breaches were not detailed but could refer to late submissions of documents or errors in the documentation provided.

(Emphasis mine)

Alpine and being late on procedural document, what an iconic duo.

What have alpine been spending the money on? Can’t be the engines themselves

Well luckily the article addresses this point in the very third sentence!

"The CCA [Cost Cap Administration] confirms that although Alpine Racing SAS and HRC [Honda Racing Corporation] have both been found to be in procedural breach, neither have exceeded the cost cap level," the FIA said in a statement.

They didn't breach the cost cap.
