Max Sides With Ferrari on in Season Testing

posted in Formula One |

(GMM) Ferrari were right to snub a F1 pact to limit in-season testing to 30 days, the FIA’s Max Mosley said.

The Briton, after a quiet meeting with the world champion marque in London last Friday, admitted that Ferrari’s own proposal to limit actual in-season mileage would be better.

Mosley called the Group of Nine’s plan ‘flawed’ because, to fully exploit a day’s running, teams would take more people - and more cars - to a test.

”And that becomes very expensive,’‘ he commented.

Max said: “It’s a pity (Ferrari’s rivals) didn’t turn up (at the meeting) to hear the other side. I think Ferrari (are) absolutely right.”
