Felipe Massa has reiterated his desire to fight for the 2008 F1 world championship that he lost to Lewis Hamilton.
, Massa described the punishment Renault received as a result of ‘Crashgate’ as “bulls***”.
Renault were handed a suspended disqualification from F1, while the two protagonists behind what happened at the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix - Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds - bans were either overturned, paving way for their returns to the sport.Since then, Symonds has worked in F1 at Williams - ironically when Massa was a driver there, while Briatore is an ambassador for the sport.“The punishment was no punishment,” Massa said. “Nobody paid for that.
Explaining again why he’s pursuing legal action 15 years later: “This is what we are fighting for. This is [why] we get together a group of lawyers to fight because this is the correct thing to do.” “We are pretty confident [in] the situation. We will fight them to the end because it was not correct. It was not fair for the sport, what happened.
“Everything came out in [a] very difficult moment, you know, for me, with knowing about what’s happened [during] that race in Singapore, then my accident. Everything was together, so it was definitely not easy,” Massa said.
