(1/18) Applying ordinary legal principles, the #FIA, #Masi and #RedBull are on shaky ground, on the basis of the #F1 #FIARegulations. Regulations 48.12, 48.13 and 15.3 do not work the way the FIA have explained. A thread. #safetycar #cas #formula1 #verstappen #Hamilton

@KLM_UK absolutely awful business class service from Kuala Lumpur to Schipol, followed by outright rudeness from Schipol staff who accused me and my 1 yo baby of being late to connection because we went to get McDonald’s (we didn’t, we ran to make connection).

24 hours later, stuck talking to a chatbot, still no luggage and absolutely no human contact. Dreadful! How is this your business class offering?? @KLM_UK

(23/18) Update 3 - I should also say that my description of RB's "it would make no difference" case was incorrectly based on reports, not the actual FIA appeal summary. I remain of the view, however, that RB's case on that was speculative and of little impact for the FIA appeal.

(24/18) UPDATE - Thanks again for questions. One more point that has been flagged today is that Masi had previously (and correctly, IMO) stated that it was mandatory for all cars to unlap in a prior race. The substance of 48.12 has not materially changed since.

(6/18) What are the counterarguments? FIRST - RB argued that, textually, "any lapped cars" doesn't mean "all lapped cars" must pass the safety car. I can expand on this if interesting, but this is a poor textual argument legally.

Side note to the thread - the reason I haven't spent a lot of time on this argument, apart from it being weak (as I say, I can expand!), is that the FIA's dismissal of Mercedes' appeal does not appear to rely on it at all expressly.
