Don't flame me but at this stage even if overturned I don't want Lewis to win like this. FIA have manipulate d the rules and I hope it leads to teams reconsidering their positions in the sport.

Which means this is no longer a sport.
It's sports entertainment.

All sports are entertainment.

But seriously though, I'm interested to see what the explanation is.

 

[LiveFromLondon]

Literally can't wait to see them justify this bs, Masi used the "its motorsport" excuse but sentiment cant be used to override their own rules as that opens up a whole can of worms.

They don't need one.

I though am tired of seeing a black man get fukked over and people telling him to get over it.

David Coulthard
Jackie Stewart
Button
Brundle (considering Lewis always made some time for him)

Wouldn't spit on them if they were on fire.

They are happy to ignore the integrity of the sport for the show. Hypocrites the lot of them.

What's taking so long? I'm refreshing SkyF1 twitter like crazy waiting for something

 

[Formerly known as...]

Either way it's taken some of the celebrations away from Max and Red Bull. This will always be known as the asterisk win.

He needs to come back and beat Lewis next season to be legit to majority

Because the FIA knows Masi fukked up massively and probably tring to find a solution to save face but remedy the situation somewhat

I dont think Max should lose the title but

1. Masi should be fired
2. Merc paid handsomely for the fukk up
3. This years wdc asterisked officially

Protest not upheld.

Looks like Mercedes has lost

Yeah. We all know it was a farce. Just focus on next season.

FIA had to deny it initially, this is something that will most likely go to the courts and the appellate process.

 

[BelieveBeOK]

Mercedes have to take it all the way to the CAS. I don't care how long it takes. What a farce.

 

[MoneyTron]

That'll do it. It'll go to court but that's just to hurt the FIA not Red Bull.

Hell of a season.

I think they need to remove as much ambiguity from critical decisions like this going forward, otherwise the integrity of the sport will be gone. A one off incident is barely acceptable, a repeat would condemn F1 to WWE status.
