Re: F1 Chaos Total!
Yes it is and its seem to be getting worse as the hours go on .
The FIA is to issue legal proceedings against eight teams who plan to break away to form a rival F1 championship in 2010.
Ferrari, McLaren, Brawn GP, Renault, Toyota, BMW Sauber, Red Bull Racing and Toro Rosso have all declined to enter F1 for 2010.
The FIA has warned of a 'financial arms race' within the sport over the split.
The rebels, which form the Formula One Teams' Association (FOTA), failed to reach a compromise with FIA president Max Mosley over plans for a £40m budget cap and pointed accusing fingers at him and F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone.
The FIA said: "The actions of FOTA as a whole, and Ferrari in particular, amount to serious violations of law including wilful interference with contractual relations, direct breaches of Ferrari's legal obligations and a grave violation of competition law."
Earlier, the governing body said: "We are disappointed but not surprised by FOTA's inability to reach a compromise in the best interests of the sport.
"It is clear that elements within FOTA have sought this outcome throughout the prolonged period of negotiation and have not engaged in the discussions in good faith.
"The FIA cannot permit a financial arms race in the championship nor can the FIA allow FOTA to dictate the rules of Formula One."
Lets call it Brawn GP race series
