Formula 1:
The British Grand Prix was an eventful and adrenaline-filled race, but not for the right reasons. Early in the race, Lewis Hamilton knocked out race leader Max Verstappen, turning in a 51G crash.
This enraged Red Bull, which soon complained to the FIA, demanding a penalty for Hamilton.
However, Mercedes also did not keep quiet, as Toto Wolff also wrote an email to race director Michael Massi.
Royals:
Well, the Australian’s job is to oversee the logistics of the Grand Prix weekend, ensuring that all cars, drivers and tracks are compliant with FIA rules and regulations before, during and after the race. Since 2019, Massi has been the FIA Formula One Race Director, Safety Delegate, Permanent Starter and Head of the F1 Technical Department.
Hamilton has threatened to leave the sport unless meaningful changes are made to the way Formula 1 is run, with many interpreting that threat as demanding the appointment of a new race director. Masi has since replaced Charlie Whiting, who died suddenly in Melbourne for the 2019 Australian Grand Prix.
