Felipe Massa’s 2008 F1 Title Quest: Court Allows Damages Claim, But Won’t Rewrite History
While Felipe Massa has won the right to sue for damages over the infamous ‘Crashgate’ scandal that cost him the 2008 Formula 1 world championship, the British High Court has made it clear that the history books will not be rewritten. The ruling allows his £64 million claim to proceed to trial but dismisses any attempt to have him retroactively declared the 2008 champion.
