Formula One risks disarray in the unlikely event of Felipe Massa winning a threatened legal claim for the 2008 world championship, according to Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff.
Former Ferrari driver Massa, now 42, has alleged he was denied the title by a “conspiracy” because the sport’s leaders knew the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix was manipulated but took no action until a year later. The Brazilian lost that title by a point to Britain’s Lewis Hamilton, then at McLaren and now at Mercedes and a seven-time world champion. “I don’t think he has a case, to be honest,” Wolff told reporters at the latest edition of the Singapore Grand Prix last weekend.
“There’s so many things that have an influence whether you win or lose that I don’t see the case to be honest. “For me this is like watching a telenovela or soap opera playing out in front of me,” added the Austrian. The www.motorsport.com website quoted Massa saying Wolff’s comments showed “we are on the right path and that people in F1 are realizing the seriousness and importance of our case. “I’m seeking justice, my childhood dream, a title for an entire nation, for Brazilians.
