It has been reported that former Formula One driver Felipe Massa is taking legal action against the FIA over the alleged robbery of the 2008 Formula One World Championship. Massa, who was runner-up to Lewis Hamilton in the 2008 season, claims that the FIA, the governing body of Formula One, manipulated the result of the championship in order to ensure Hamilton’s victory.
The Brazilian driver has been vocal about his grievances for some time, but has now decided to take legal action against the FIA. Massa claims that the FIA changed the rules of the race in order to give Hamilton an advantage. He believes that this was done in order to ensure that the British driver would win the championship, rather than Massa.
Massa’s legal team is now looking to prove that the FIA acted unlawfully and manipulated the result of the championship. They are also seeking damages for Massa, who believes that he was robbed of the chance to become world champion.
The case is likely to be a long and complex one, as it will involve a detailed examination of the rules and regulations of Formula One. It is also likely to be a costly process, as Massa’s legal team will have to prove that the FIA acted unlawfully in order to secure Hamilton’s victory.
This case could have far-reaching implications for Formula One and its governing body, as it could set a precedent for future cases. It could also lead to changes in the way that Formula One is run and regulated, as well as providing a boost to Massa’s reputation as a driver who was robbed of his chance at glory.
