The FIA has performed a humiliating back-down led by Mohammed Ben Sulayem after an investigation into a scandal involving Toto Wolff and his wife Susie. The investigation, following a single media report in Business F1 magazine, has been called off after every single rival team rallied around the Wolffs and Mercedes. Reports suggest that Mercedes and the Wolffs may consider legal action against the FIA president. An unprecedented event unfolded in Formula 1 history, with a statement and support from the rival teams. It is a humiliating climb-down for the FIA and its chief, according to reports, and the FIA’s embattled president now faces inquest over the investigation.
