Flavio Briatore blasts decision to strip Pierre Gasly of Monaco podium
Alpine boss Flavio Briatore addressed the FIA Court of Appeals decision Friday at the Italian Grand Prix
Alpine's executive advisor Flavio Briatore criticized the decision to strip driver Pierre Gasly of his podium finish from the Monaco Grand Prix, arguing that the FIA's decision-making process was unfair. The issue centers around one of the judges, Filippo Marchino, who Briatore alleged had a close relationship with McLaren, one of the teams appealing the result.
Briatore felt that the judge's connection to McLaren compromised the fairness of the process. Despite accepting the final decision, Briatore called for a complete independence from team affiliations among the FIA's reviewing officials.
