Felipe Massa has ‘real prospect of succeeding on all grounds’ in Lewis Hamilton F1 title trial
Felipe Massa’s court representative believes that the former Ferrari driver has a strong chance of winning his case against F1, the FIA, and Bernie Ecclestone. Nick De Marco KC argued against the case being dismissed, as requested by the defendants. Massa is seeking £60m in damages, alleging that the defendants conspired to keep him from potentially winning the 2008 world championship due to the ‘Crashgate’ scandal. His lawsuit cites breach of contract or duty, accusing Ecclestone and the FIA of mishandling the investigation into the Singapore crash. De Marco stated that Massa has a good chance of success in all his claims, opposing the defense’s motion to dismiss the case. Ecclestone’s lawyer dismissed the lawsuit as an attempt to revise the 2008 championship results, labeling it a misguided effort.
