Chandhok against reversing UAE result after Masi exit

Karun Chandhok has rejected any notion that the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix result should be overturned in the wake of Michael Masi being ousted.

The ex-Formula 1 driver thinks Max Verstappen ought to be able to rest easy as World Champion, even though the FIA have all but admitted procedural errors were made that cost Lewis Hamilton the title.

In announcing the “structural changes” promised as a result of the FIA’s investigation into the highly contentious finale in Abu Dhabi, the governing body’s president Mohammed bin Sulayem confirmed Masi would be replaced by a “new race management team” starting with next week’s pre-season unofficial test in Barcelona.

Has the FIA hinted that Masi is out?

Were the odds stacked against Mazepin in 2021?

Also, a Virtual Race Control Room will be set up in an FIA office – likened to football’s VAR system – while “unlapping procedures behind the Safety Car will be re-assessed”, that having been a key factor in the Yas Marina controversy.

Clear direction and plans from the new FIA President @Ben_Sulayem as we head to the new F1 season.

First big step to rebuilding the fans trust of the sport and the governing body. https://t.co/GCqoqOrqE1
