Christian Horner contacted Michael Masi after ‘unfair’ Abu Dhabi treatmentChristian Horner has said he got in touch with the under-fire Michael Masi after the drama of last season’s finale in Abu Dhabi unfolded.
“I felt that it wasn’t fair, the way he had been treated, because I think that he’d done the best that he could following the principles that have been told. “So he did everything to get that race going again, which would have been a horrendous finish to the season, see it just diluted and peter out under a Safety Car.
A part of the FIA’s plan was to introduce joint race directors, with Niels Wittich and Eduardo Freitas having been appointed to share the significant responsibilities between then, in order to reduce the pressure on one person through the course of a season.
“And we have to remember he’s had very little support in that Race Control tower, he’s left very much on his own up there, and when you follow the process of how they’re looking at how cars are unlapped or not, it’s back to pens and pieces of paper.
