This has nothing to do with the stewards.
Allegations and evidence of Piquet being asked to deliberately crash were raised. Almost immediately afterwards. The FIA made the choice not to follow up with an investigation until after the prize giving ceremony, when the results were locked in place.
That's why Massa is taking action now. This only came out publicly this year.
If we're going to litigate every dodgy decision in F1, lawyers will be buying mansions
Ignoring and even covering up a deliberate attempt at fixing a race is a bit more than a dodgy decision imo
"dodgy" that's sure one way to refer to fixing the championship result.
That wasn't the intent
The intent was to allow a dubious result to stand. That's match fixing.
Yeah, I'm not agreeing with it. If Spygate hadn't happened, maybe things would have been different. Last thing the sport needed was more scandal, hurts advertising revenues, and that was the most important thing to Bernie and Mosley.
