N.Tech loses case against FIA

fia-70No surprise here, but let’s get this loose end tied up, shall we?

French courts have rejected N.Technology’s lawsuit against the FIA over the choosing of new teams for 2010.

The FIA released the following statement:

The Tribunal de Grande Instance in Paris has upheld the FIA’s selection procedure for new teams in the 2010 FIA Formula One World Championship and rejected a legal action filed by UK company MSC, one of the unsuccessful candidates. The court rejected all points raised by MSC and ordered the company to pay the FIA’s legal costs.

MSC was one of 15 new organizations to submit an application to compete in the championship in 2010. The FIA’s selection procedure involved a thorough due diligence process on all applications with the assistance of financial auditors Deloitte & Touche and other technical experts.

As I said, no surprise. I wonder if the courts will be so favorable when it comes to Flavio Briatore’s suit.
