FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem has sensationally suggested he would be willing to bring Michael Masi back to F1.
Masi, the F1 race director, oversaw the controversial end to the 2021 world championship where Hamilton was denied his eighth world title due to an incorrect application of Safety Car rules. The FIA inquiry found Masi at fault and he was sacked for his mishandling of the late Safety Car period. However, Ben Sulayem, the new head, has indicated that Masi could return to a role within F1’s governing body in the future and defended him against the abuse he faced. Sulayem compared Hamilton’s defeat to England’s victory in the 1966 World Cup final and stated that the result could not be changed.
