New row 'threatens F1's future' BBC SPORT | Motorsport | Formula 1 | New row 'threatens F1's future' The eight members of the Formula 1 Teams Association (Fota) walked out of a meeting with the sport's governing body, the FIA, on Wednesday. The meeting, at Germany's Nurburgring, was held to discuss next year's rules and Fota's proposed changes to them. But the Fota teams left when told they had not entered the 2010 championship and therefore had no voting rights on technical and sporting regulations. A Fota statement said the row "puts the future of Formula 1 in jeopardy". It is the latest incident in a bitter, long-running argument between Fota and the FIA over planned budgetary and technical changes which has threatened to tear the sport apart. The eight Fota teams - Ferrari, McLaren, BMW Sauber, Renault, Toyota, Red Bull Racing, Toro Rosso and Brawn GP - insist they have entered the 2010 championship... |

F I A is full of it... |
WTF? I can't even begin to wrap my head around this! The FIA published the teams that were in for next year's F1 championship but now they're saying these FOTA teams are back off the list? How can they do that after the list was already approved and published?! Stupid political drama!!! Save the drama for the track! |
I got a tweet regarding this on the way back from Savannah the other day and almost threw my phone out the window. :wall::wall::wall::wall::wall: |
