FOTA set for open revolt against FIA

The Formula One Teams' Association is ready to go public and lift the lid on their grievances against the FIA as the battle of wills and words between the two organisations intensifies.

FOTA now have the full backing of the major manufacturers of Europe who yesterday concluded after a board meeting in Brussels that "the current governance system cannot continue", in effect calling for FIA president
Max Mosley to go.

As expected, the FIA's announcement yesterday of the teams due to line up on the grid for 2010 failed to resolve any issues.

Legal battle ahead?

Instead, the FIA face a potential legal battle with Ferrari, Red Bull Racing and Toro Rosso after handing the trio a full entry against their wishes.

However, in claiming the FIA issued an "erroneous statement", FOTA insist the entries of all its eight members were conditional.
