"The FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem has decided to move Michael Masi out of the role of F1 Race Director. He says Masi will be offered another FIA role, but whether the Australian wants to accept whatever role is on offer remains to be seen. This is not a good precedent for the federation but obviously Ben Sulayem felt that a change would be a good thing."

Wrong. Masi has been sacked from the role as F1 Race Director. He has
been replaced.
He currently has no role within the FIA. So he has not been promoted
out of the role... for doing such a good job in Abu Dhabi.
So it's clear to anyone that the FIA are not standing behind him
supporting his actions in Abu Dhabi.
You called it wrong then and you continue to call it wrong now.--- SBBSecho 3.06-Win32

I'm making the very salient point that if Masi acted solely on his own,
they could have actually sacked him, and nothing he could say would
matter.
It's clear from the fact that they aren't disclosing what the inquiry
found that there are things they don't want to reveal, and from the fact
that they're offering Masi another position, it's clear he's being
incented not to relate what he knows on the matter.

He has not been promoted.
Really?
You think he's going to be demoted, do you?
What's your prediction, sunshine?
...or could you just not read those words?
Let's sum up:
Masi is not being fired: he is being offered a different FIA
position.
Wrong. Masi has been sacked from the role as F1 Race Director. He
has been replaced.
Nope. Simply, factually, incorrect.
He currently has no role within the FIA. So he has not been promoted
out of the role... for doing such a good job in Abu Dhabi.
So it's clear to anyone that the FIA are not standing behind him
supporting his actions in Abu Dhabi.
"Scapegoat": look it up.
You called it wrong then and you continue to call it wrong now.

The FIA won't disclose what their inquiry discovered.
Since you can't read the words that I actually wrote,
there's no chance that YOU can read between the lines...
...but I bet there are those that can.
Tell me:
When a company finds someone has committed major
misconduct...
...do they typically offer that person a different
position in the company?
Is someone "sacked" when he's actually offered a
different position?
Sacked 'from a position' and given another is not misuse of
the term.
geoff
Show an example of it being used in that manner.
You've got the entire internet to choose from.
As everyone knows any possition he is offered is simply a
sweetener to prevent any protest on his part after removal
(probably a better word than sacked in this case but the
implication is the same you are just being a pedantic twat
playing with words as normal)
Nope.
I'm making the very salient point that if Masi acted solely on
his own, they could have actually sacked him, and nothing he
could say would matter.
It's clear from the fact that they aren't disclosing what the
inquiry found that there are things they don't want to reveal,
and from the fact that they're offering Masi another position,
it's clear he's being incented not to relate what he knows on the
matter.
Expect a tinfoil shortage as you will need all of it for your hat
So what's your explanation?
It was all Masi's fault... ...but they're offering him another
position, why?
They held an inquiry, but they won't release their findings...
...why?

Of course they are. If someone refuses to take up said offer, do they

Of course they are. If someone refuses to take up said offer, do they
still have a job? Does that count as resignation?
Yes.
So you believe that employers have the right to turn to their employees
and demand they move to a different job, and if they refuse, that would
be resignation with no penalty or reparation?

As everyone knows any possition he is offered is simply a sweetener to

Nope.
I'm making the very salient point that if Masi acted solely on his own,
they could have actually sacked him, and nothing he could say would matter.

Wrong. Masi has been sacked from the role as F1 Race Director. He
has been replaced.
Nope. Simply, factually, incorrect.
Yet, you don't say how, Mealy.
He currently has no role within the FIA. So he has not been promoted
out of the role... for doing such a good job in Abu Dhabi.
So it's clear to anyone that the FIA are not standing behind him
supporting his actions in Abu Dhabi.
"Scapegoat": look it up.
How can he be a scapegoat when he instigated and was solely responsible
for the actions that were deemed the problem.

You won't keep him quiet about what happened by giving him that
job.
He is unlikely, in any position, to say "Yes. I fucked up and admit
I am to susceptible to bullying to be objective in that position".
He's quite likely to say "I was under pressure from my bosses to make
sure the race ended with excitement rather than under a yellow flag".

Well we do know that you haven't shown anything to support your claim

Look up "constructive dismissal" cases.
You will find plenty of examples.
In article <sume9e$12b$1@dont-email.me>, nuh-uh@nope.com says...
It's clear from the fact that they aren't disclosing what the inquiry
found that there are things they don't want to reveal,
That they have concurred that the WDC title was won outside of the rules
of the sport. This, for a multitude of reasons (not least, legal action
by outside parties) is something that they can not admit.
I would also not be surprised if a large chunk of that "transparent
internal inquiry that we won't be releasing" was spent on working out
the cheapest method of getting Masi out of that position. More laundry
that they wouldn't want aired in public.
In article <sumllj$fpr$1@dont-email.me>, nuh-uh@nope.com says...
And if Masi were the only one involved at the FIA, they would have.
This is such a simplistic logical fallacy as I have seen recently. Such
an inquiry would be difficult to conduct without touching on non-public internal structure, policy and ip issues that they wouldn't want made
public.
If they found that Masi's actions were a contravention of the rules
then they can't make that public. Not officially, at any rate.
If anything, the fact that they have reneged on previous statements of transparency intent suggests that the inquiry was quite a thorough one.
In article <sup54r$vvm$1@dont-email.me>, nuh-uh@nope.com says...
Of course they are. If someone refuses to take up said offer, do they
still have a job? Does that count as resignation?
Yes.
So you believe that employers have the right to turn to their employees
and demand they move to a different job, and if they refuse, that would
be resignation with no penalty or reparation?

Now that Mercedes have his head on a pike, perhaps Ham can stop

How on earth does Masi being sacked mitigate Ham's annoyance at
unfairly being deprived of a record WDC win?
Not having the person who fucked him over in a position where he could
do it again at least acknowledges the wrongdoing and addresses the lack
of trust there would be in the culprit.

Wrong. Masi has been sacked from the role as F1 Race Director.
He has been replaced.
Nope. Simply, factually, incorrect.
Yet, you don't say how, Mealy.
"Sacked" means dismissed from an organization.
'verb [with object ]
1 informal dismiss from employment: any official found to be involved
would be sacked on the spot.'
He currently has no role within the FIA. So he has not been
promoted out of the role... for doing such a good job in Abu
Dhabi.
So it's clear to anyone that the FIA are not standing behind him supporting his actions in Abu Dhabi.
"Scapegoat": look it up.
How can he be a scapegoat when he instigated and was solely
responsible for the actions that were deemed the problem.
And you know he was solely responsible... ...how?

position, why?
They held an inquiry, but they won't release their findings...
...why?
If you weren't so busy defending the indefensible you might take the

That they have concurred that the WDC title was won outside of the
rules of the sport. This, for a multitude of reasons (not least,
legal action by outside parties) is something that they can not
admit.
I would also not be surprised if a large chunk of that "transparent internal inquiry that we won't be releasing" was spent on working
out the cheapest method of getting Masi out of that position. More
laundry that they wouldn't want aired in public.
And on who was pressuring him from above.

I don't of course.
If anybody else was involved in coming to that decision,
yes, then they too should be re-assigned, sacked from
that job, or whatever you want to call it.
And that's why we're not getting the results of the
inquiry and Masi is getting a new job and not being
sacked.
Sacked from that job, and given another position in the organisation.
Sorry, but no.

Well we do know that you haven't shown anything to support your

If anybody else was involved in coming to that decision, yes,
then they too should be re-assigned, sacked from that job, or whatever you want to call it.
And that's why we're not getting the results of the inquiry and
Masi is getting a new job and not being sacked.
Sacked from that job, and given* another position in the
organisation.
Not to split hairs .....
*"is to be offered"
;-)
Isn't it funny how you normally hang on every word Hamilton says:

Yup.

No, they didn't.
Yes... ...they really did.
If they could have supported Masi's decisions... and those of the stewards... they would have done so and by doing so saved face and
their integrity would have remained intact.
They did that by not overturning the results.

Indeed, sacked as RD as several of us said; notably not YOU.
...or could you just not read those words?
Let's sum up:
Masi is not being fired: he is being offered a different FIA
position.
The FIA won't disclose what their inquiry discovered.
Since you can't read the words that I actually wrote, there's no
chance that YOU can read between the lines...
...but I bet there are those that can.
Tell me:
When a company finds someone has committed major misconduct...
...do they typically offer that person a different position in the
company?
Is someone "sacked" when he's actually offered a different position?
Sacked 'from a position' and given another is not misuse of the term.

You've got the entire internet to choose from.
Happens regularly in politics e.g. Dominic Rab was sacked as Foreign
Secretary and moved to Justice Secretary
Look up "rhetorical language".
A cabinet shuffle is not a sacking.

Because it's obvious to anyone who actually learned and remembered
everything that went on
(including Masi's special instructions to the
teams before the race that any safety car period near the end of the
race would be ended as quickly as possible),
that Masi did not act
solely of his own accord.
He acted with the influence and pressure from those above, who above
all did not want this season to end under a yellow flag.
Try not to rely too heavily on your lack of evidence or wild

So don't act like you, who without any backing declares that this was

No, they really didn't. There is no protocol or precedent for

Now that Mercedes have his head on a pike, perhaps Ham can stop
being so petulant.
How on earth does Masi being sacked mitigate Ham's annoyance at
unfairly being deprived of a record WDC win?
Not having the person who fucked him over in a position where he could
do it again at least acknowledges the wrongdoing and addresses the lack
of trust there would be in the culprit.
I don't think Masi *fucked him over* in any deliberate sense; he made
a bad decision in the heat of the moment which shows he isn't up to
the job and was rightly removed from it.

Agreed. Herbie Bash said that a red flag should have been thrown
(which was also my instinct as soon as the safety car came out - I
was "What??? No red flag?"). At that stage of that race a red flag
was really the only fair and equitable call - other than finishing
under the SC which would have, although consistent with the previous application of the rules, been an anticlimax.
Under a red the lapped cars would still have been unlapped but at
least there would have been tyre parity between Max and Lewis and a
race for a few laps. It would have been a riveting end to a very
close season.

The FIA needed a scapegoat.
No, they didn't.
Yes... ...they really did.
Oh well, if an intransigent, habitual liar insists then
it must be true /s
So why did they need a scapegoat?
Because it's obvious to anyone who actually learned and remembered everything that went on
(including Masi's special instructions to the
teams before the race that any safety car period near the
end of the race would be ended as quickly as possible),
Quote the part where he says "with total disregard for the regulations or fairness"
Why? It isn't relevant.
LOL. You have rarely said anything so stupid... and you say a
lot of stupid things.
The fact that he told them that especially means something
was up.
Don't be mealy mouthed. Elaborate, giving all the context you
have.
that Masi did not act
solely of his own accord.
No, that is yet another falsehood.
He acted with the influence and pressure from those
above, who above all did not want this season to end
under a yellow flag.
You have already admitted you have no evidence whatsoever to support such a conspiracy theory.
And you've admitted you have none to support your claim he
acted on his own intiative only.
That is yet another falsehood. The entirety of everything that
has been published suggests he was solely responsible for his decisions.
Ummmmm.... ...nope.
LIAR. You have admitted you have no evidence to the contrary.
You've presented no evidence he acted solely on his own.
None.
And we know there is information that HAS not been published.
Sure, maybe it says you are an ignorant cunt. You certainly can't
prove otherwise.
Do you acknowledge that the FIA held an inquiry and then declined to
make the findings of that inquiry available?
Yes or no.
Try not to rely too heavily on your lack of evidence or
wild conspiracy theories.
So don't act like you, who without any backing declares
that this was solely Masi?
"backing"?
Are you unfamiliar with English?
I am unfamiliar with the way you attempt to use/abuse it.
You really didn't know what I meant by "backing" in this context?
No. For someone who has previously demonstrated a hypocritical
pedantry it makes no sense whatsoever.
Would you like to elaborate?
"backing": a colloquialism for "support" in the sense of "support for
a position held".
WTF are you on about.
ALL OF THE EVIDENCE suggests that Masi alone made the
decisions to ignore the regulations and do what he did.
What EVIDENCE is that?
"ALL" available evidence.
OK. Give an example.
Every single article that discussed the decisions taken in Abu
Dhabi.
Sorry. Saying "every single article" is a cop-out.
https://www.google.com/search?q=masis+abu+dhabi+decisions
A good few hundred here I would think.
Do you have a single one to the contrary?
You have certainly FAILED to declare even one in the last few
months.
You've yet to present one that supports your position.
And I've declared the acknowledged-to-be-unusual-at-the-time
announcement by Masi before the race that any safety car period
towards the end of that race would be ended as quickly as possible.
Do you acknowledge that that was told to the teams prior to the race?
Yes or no.
Are you unfamiliar with English.
The special briefing with the team is evidence that other
factors were involved.
Why not remind us of exactly what the words and context of that statement is with emphasis on the bit where he says he will
disregard the regulations and the teams all agree.
It isn't necessary.
Not if you admit you really don't know what was said except in the
loosest terms that do not support your assertions in the slightest.
Do you acknowledge that such a discussion took place?
Yes or no.
No, Clearly no discussion that would support your claim that Masi
was given the authority to ignore the regulations.
I'm not asking whether you agree it supports my claim.
I'm asking if you acknowledge that in an unusual move, Masi informed
the teams especially for the final GP that any safety car period near
the end of the race would be ended as quickly as possible.
Do you acknowledge that that statement was made to the teams?
Yes or no.
Why not remind us of exactly what the words and context of that
statement is with emphasis on the bit where he says he will
disregard the regulations and the teams all agree
Do you admit you cannot do that (because you are dishonest and are attempting to misrepresent an undocumented discussion)?
YES or NO.
Until you honestly answer my question, I will defer answering yours.
What's YOUR evidence that Masi "alone" made the decision.
Everything of relevance that has been published.
Give an example.
See above.
Where you provided no actual example. Got it.
