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.

Yeah, but also the clash over these rights, alongside competition-related disputes, created a prolonged standoff that shaped the structure and commercial landscape of Formula 1, eventually leading to the Concorde Agreement, which established a more balanced relationship between the governing body, the teams, and the commercial stakeholders.

Paolo Basarri, the FIA Compliance Officer, has also been sacked. It seems that he tried to circumnavigate MBS (presumably because he did something very stupid, again), so MBS got rid of him. |

Wow! I wonder if we are going to start seeing various FIA employees "fall" from high balconies!
Is all of this internal attrition some type of big brain move by MBS that will play well with his supporters (draining the swamp here!!) or... is he in some weird panic mode where he is just swinging at anyone and anything that doesn't agree with him and it all comes tumbling down? Richard |

It really must feel like a toxic workplace to those still there.
MBS might be heading for a reputation nearly as poor as Sepp Blatter when it comes to running a sport. |

Liberty Media must be looking over asking what the hell man, we paid a lot just to produce your circus. We assumed you weren't the circus in the office but apparently not

It sucks. Will next move be the office going to Bahreïn, Abu Dhabi or Saudi Arabia?
