Seb leob & F1

[Monaro5.7]

Well it the first full day of competition in the Rally GB. And on this day the FIA have denied Seb his race in F1. He was due to run in the F1 in Abu Dhab, But the FIA have denied him his super licence. Dont know how many people here will follow rallying but this guy is a 5 times world rally champion and probably has more car control than most of the drivers in F1. I think the FIA are out of order when they let guys come in from F3000 who are still wearing nappies. Seb has been testing the car and has experiance of theses cars in all conditions.

So WHY?

Hasnt greased the right palms can be the only rationale imho. Raikonnen got his superlicence despite being vastly under experienced in car racing at the time iirc.
