Why Massa's treatment is unjust
Ferrari's handling of the German Grand Prix has polarised opinions - with some attacking the team, others the rules. Adam Cooper argues that Ferrari was utterly wrong not to let Felipe Massa win
In Germany Ferrari finally made good on the promise that the F10 has shown since the blown diffuser package was introduced in Valencia, following a couple of weekends when little went right for the team.
A one-two on merit should have been cause for celebration for the team and its fans, but instead the men from Maranello found themselves under siege - and just possibly under threat from heavier sanctions from the FIA than the token $100,000 fine announced on Sunday evening.
