The opportunity to know if the threat of the eight FOTA teams to create their own championship takes on a new dimension or if the two parties manage to find an agreement.

Max Mosley who announced a few days ago that he would not leave the presidency of the FIA ​​? in the middle of a fight », intends to reaffirm the authority of the FIA ​​over manufacturers. While FOTA and ACEA (the association of European automobile manufacturers) have called for a change in governance, Mosley announced that it was “ an attack on the rights of the FIA ​​to regulate Formula 1.
