Max Mosley Wants WMSC to Strip Ferrari’s Points
Ferrari would be prepared to launch civil action against the FIA if the team is stripped of its points accrued from the German Grand Prix at the World Motor Sport Council hearing next month, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The Italian team was slapped with a fine after race leader Felipe Massa moved over to let Fernando Alonso past to win in July. But several of the sport’s leading figures, including former FIA president Max Mosley, have said that the team should be stripped of its points as well.
“In this sort of situation, the best policy is to respect and to trust in the highest level of the sport’s governing body,” said a Ferrari statement. ESPN F1
One possible option would be to take away the points earned by Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa during the race, with former FIA president Max Mosley stating his belief that the team should lose the maximum score it secured with its controversial 1-2 finish.
Mosley also insisted that he felt that the ban on team orders should remain in place, despite a number of figures calling for it to be removed.
“Most teams are calling for the withdrawal of team orders, which I can understand, because it’s in their interests,” he said. “But if we are to meet the needs of the public, who are in their millions, watching races all around the world and ultimately funding the sport, then we need to keep the ban.” Yahoo!
