That might have been the quote of the day but you can take it to the bank that next season Michael Masi will be in the grand stand selling hot dogs and not Race Director. While I think Max was consistently the fastest driver all year, in a fast car, that was without question one of the most appalling decisions I have ever witnessed in professional sport. Not only was Michael Masi flippant about his decision, his decision was clearly wrong and outside his jurisdiction as race director. He was also flippant to the wrong people. ie. The ones that pump the 10's of millions into the sport each year. I don't want to be buying shares in Michael Masi.
