Jean Todt, president of the FIA, announced that the crash would be investigated. The governing body seized video footage from Flörsch's on-board television camera and those of the drivers she was close by when the accident happened. Van Amersfoort Racing (VAR) team owner Fritz van Amersfoort spoke of his belief that the accident could have occurred on other circuits, and the FIA's race director Charlie Whiting stated that the Guia Circuit was not dangerous and no major alterations to its configuration were necessary. Grand Prix Drivers' Association director and Haas F1 driver Romain Grosjean said its members would probably raise the issue of raised kerbs on the right of Lisboa corner with the FIA; the crash reminded him of Konstantin Tereshchenko's accident in a GP3 Series race at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in 2014. According to Jonathan Noble of motorsport.com and racing driver Ryan Lewis, the installation of raised kerbs prevented Flörsch's car striking the cockpit sidepod of Tsuboi's vehicle in a similar style to Takuma Sato and Nick Heidfeld's crash at the 2002 Austrian Grand Prix. In May 2021, the front wing from Flörsch's car was returned to VAR after the team noticed it going up for sale on an online auction and filed a complaint with the Macau police who recovered it.
