    Looks like one of the rejected teams may carry their complaing to the European Commission for their ruling on the engine issue. Interesting is that the last time the EC investigated F1 in the late 90's it led to sweeping changes such as Bernie stepping down from several positions he held on the FIA and also the sale of F1's commercial rights for 100 years.

    so ......wonder what the future holds???

    Sounds like its only leverage being applied by that team atm but WTG Max!
    His legacy possibly a drastic reduction of FIA power over F1.
    The irony is over-whelming.

    Well, there go the rest of the European races.

    (Half the season is *outside* the EU already -- even without NorthAmer races.)

    "IRL of Arabia", anyone?
