I've made a huge mistake.
I've just discovered Villeneuve has five kids from three wives. At least one of them should turn out WDC standard. Perhaps he could ask Verstappen Snr for the correct parenting method.

Something about the front end of the Red Bull makes me think of Indy cars. Something about the nose in particular, it's a bit squarer.

Reports out.

https://www.racefans.net/2022/03/19/fia-publishes-full-report-on-abu-dhabi-controversy/

Broad conclusion - Masi wasnt strong enough in the role and capitulated to outside pressure throughout the season. They have now made it all but impossible to leverage that pressure again.

Interesting to note that their justification for the VAR F1 rules team back at head office seems to be that the rules weren't applied equally/fairly. Think back to mid pack drivers getting hammered for things other drivers got away with.

It makes a very strong point that the classification is final and there is no chance of it changing now due to Mercedes withdrawing their complaint last year.

Again they don't outright say it, but as mentioned the 'clarification' to the safety car rule implies that it was applied incorrectly to what the FIA understanding of the rule was.

would they have won the appeal though?

“In accordance with the rules, Mercedes made a protest to the stewards after the race, seeking to change the race classification. The stewards dismissed the protest and Mercedes then had an opportunity to appeal that decision to the FIA International Court of Appeal, but did not do so. There are no other available mechanisms in the rules for amending the race classification.”

I think it's their name for a backup set of stewards, but it doesn't make much sense since all their decisions are made based on video replays anyway.
