Ross Brawn has said that this contact between the race director and the team boss will end

F1 Managing Director Ross Brawn has revealed that going forward it will halt communication between team owners and FIA representatives overseeing the race. It has happened in light of what happened in the 2021 season, with Red Bull and Mercedes team bosses repeatedly pressuring FIA race director Michael Massi. Things came to a turning point when Masi originally ruled that lapped cars would not be allowed to unlap themselves, which triggered a desperate call from Red Bull team boss Christian Horner, prompting Massi to back down his decision. Changed, resulting in a call from the Mercedes boss. Toto Wolff.

Michael Massey was often cornered by team owners during races throughout the season.

“We will close this contact next year,” Brawn is quoted by Auto Motor und Sport. “It is unacceptable that team owners put Michael under such pressure during races. It is like coaches interacting with referees in football. Toto cannot demand that there should not be a safety car and Christian cars -lap. It is at the discretion of the race director,” said Ferrari’s former F1 technical director and former team principal of the Mercedes F1 team.

The whole situation is further exacerbated by the fact that communications between the teams and the FIA ​​are being broadcast for the first time adding to the drama on social media. Michael Massey, FIA Race Director, has been in this position for 3 years, where he was Deputy Race Director under the great Charlie Whiting. Charlie Whiting who passed away on the eve of the 2019 season wrote most of the rules that govern F1 races run by the FIA. Massey was promoted after Whiting’s passing, but he still has not managed to establish himself on teams like Whiting’s.
