The FIA may replace F1 event director Michael Massey!

Peter Beyer, FIA FIA's car sports secretary general and head of FIA's single-seat racing division, said F1 race director Michael Marcy could be replaced, but also expressed support for Marci's handling of the controversy during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

At present, the FIA investigation into the disputed incident at the Abu Dhabi station is still ongoing. It is reported that how to reduce the workload of event directors is also one of the issues, including whether it is possible to appoint multiple event directors and rotate them during the season, and set up a "remote decision center" to provide remote help to the decision-making team of the track control center.

Peter Beyer said in an interview: "We told Marcy that he did a great job, but there is also the possibility of a new race director, and I made a proposal to the World Motorsport Council, and of course Marcy is certainly among them. ”

"When you work at the FIA, you have to realize that you're a 'sports cop' and that cops in everyday life rarely get empathy. What is intolerable is the reaction on social media, where they will do whatever it takes, like their death threats to Williams driver Latifi. ”

"Massy doesn't have a social media account, but will be attacked by other sources."

"I would assure Marcy that the FIA will support our discussions and let him know that the FIA wants to continue to work with him, but also needs Marcy's understanding and we have to deal with this."
