Ferrari Faces FIA Hearing Over Team Order Rules

FERRARI will face motor sport's world governing body in a disciplinary hearing in September after having been found guilty of breaking team order rules at last month's German Grand Prix.

FIA said on Monday the World Motor Sport Council hearing will be chaired by Nick Craw, its deputy president for sport, in Paris on September 8.

Ferrari has already been fined US$100,000 after Brazilian driver Felipe Massa appeared to let teammate and two-time world champion Fernando Alonso of Spain pass him to win the race on July 25.

The WMSC has the power to exclude Ferrari from the championship, although that is highly unlikely. Massa led for 49 of 67 laps before he was passed by Alonso following Ferrari radio messages.
