Michael Masi - Was the FIA right to axe F1 race director?

Michael Masi has been relieved of his duties as the Formula 1 race director by the FIA following an inquiry into the events of the Adu Dhabi Grand Prix.

GPFans editor-in-chief Ian Parkes and deputy editor Sam Hall join Oliver Wilson for the first roundtable of the 2022 F1 season.

The axing of former F1 race director Michael Masi is the topic of discussion this week as the GPFans team considers whether the FIA has made the correct decision.

Also on the agenda is the introduction of F1's own VAR-style video review system.

Listen to the takes of the GPFans Global team as they digest all the action from a busy few days in F1.
