Ferrari escapes further punishment
Ferrari went before the FIA’s World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) in Paris today and despite what happened at the German Grand Prix back in July, when Felipe Massa yielded in order to allow team-mate Fernando Alonso through to take victory, the Scuderia has seemingly escaped further punishment.
According to Reuters, Angelo Sticchi Damiani, president of Italy's CAI Motorsport Federation said the WMSC agreed 'unanimously not to impose a further punishment', although the 100,000 dollar fine remains.
Other sources suggest that the FIA will now review the regulations which prohibit team orders.
It has also been muted that the WMSC considered giving Alonso a time penalty to drop him behind Massa. However, this was rejected.
