Balestre had a tough time with opposition from the teams, but too often made the wrong decision.

Yeah, I'm firmly with the Balestre-bashers on that one!

He got a tough time, which became the FISA-FOCA war, in part due to a perceived bias by FOCA, on the part of FISA, in favour of the major manufacturers: Alfa-Romeo, Ferrari and Renault, who were competing against the privateer teams of Brabham, McLaren, Tyrrell and Williams etc., collectively known as Garagistas, coined by Enzo Ferrari. There was also the commercial rights issue.
