Flav wants majority rule in F1

Renault’s managing director Flavio Briatore wants Formula 1’s current unanimity rule on decisions to be scrapped in the new Concorde Agreement in favour of a majority-rule system.

Briatore insists the current process to implement changes is “crazy" and must be revised.

“Personally, I wish F1 could be run by Bernie [Ecclestone], supported by Max [Mosley], as a dictatorship," he told the latest issue of F1 Racing magazine (on sale now).

“That isn’t possible any more, because the F1 world has become so corporate.

“So we must introduce a majority-rule system with the new Concorde Agreement.

“At the moment, nothing can be decided without unanimity.

“You wouldn’t even run the residents’ committee of an apartment block like that, let alone a global $3 billion sport.

“It’s crazy."
