Justice rules in favor of Briatore

Flavio Briatore, accompanied by Pat Symonds in this process, displayed a certain optimism regarding his action before the Parisian court. The Italian and the Briton won their case today.

According to the TGI, the decision taken by the International Automobile Federation on September 21 is simply “irregular”.

Flavio Briatore has always presented this sanction as the revenge of a man, Max Mosley, by posing as the victim of this affair? According to the verdict of the FIA ​​World Council, Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds asked Nelsinho Piquet to cause the safety car to exit by hitting a wall during the Singapore Grand Prix to favor his teammate's race Fernando Alonso.

This “victory” for Briatore and Symonds (who pocketed 15 and 000 euros in damages respectively) allowed them to once again practice motorsport.
