Explain how he is a scapegoat? Are you saying the FIA told him to "fix" the AD race for Max to win? :
I wouldn't be surprised if he was told to to everything he could to make sure the race finished under green-flag conditions and/or that if there was a way to make the race close at the end to take it. kambites said:

He took it upon himself to throw out the established restart procedure and be influenced by Horner and/or just make up his own solution 'for the show'. I can't believe how stupid/arrogant a man has to be to not simply stick to established procedure at such a critical moment.
An absolute disgrace and a very poor reflection on his character after years of training and preparation for the role from Charlie.
Further arrogance was shown by not simply pissing off when he lost his role. How the hell did he think he could survive happily in an organisation that still receives daily mocking for it's fecklessness, largely because of AD 21'. I'm sure he has been paid off - that's just normal these days and in terms of employment law he didn't do anything wrong. I just can't believe he or anyone else thought it was a good idea to wait until now to part company.
Ah well, all done now. I'm glad his chapter is over.

There’s absolutely no suggestion anywhere of anything other than incompetence on Masi’s part, potentially also weakness in respect of being influenced by competitors. Comparing it with corruption is false, with the information on hand.
To use your football analogy, he was a referee who called a penalty kick outrageously wrongly, after being influenced by a couple of players on the pitch. He was not a referee taking brown envelopes.

This wasn't incompetence, he knew the rules intimately, he broke them. Just on betting alone, there were millions of pounds lost to innocent punters, (not me!), never mind the money spent by the the team attempting to win. Why would someone deliberately do that? Corruption cannot be ruled out and should be rooted out. As I said, it's happened before at the very highest levels of sport, why would F1 be immune?
There are several football analogies, none of which involve making a wrong judgement call which is the typical claim by Masi apologists. An example might be changing the rules towards the end of a game, deciding for instance to let the team that was losing have 12 men on the pitch for the last five minutes and the other team being reduced to eight.
This was an extreme event and should have been investigated by the appropriate authorities.
Am sure this has been the plan all along, shuffle out of the lime light, let the dust settle then get rid.
I think it’s all been said, his behaviour at AD was appalling. Even the contrasting tone he took with the teams (one of which was only pushing him to apply the normal rules). He had to go, the FIA just wanted ti do it in a way that would avoid turning the heat up on the whole thing.

Looks like a pay off to me... Still, at least he is gone, pretty much cements Max's title as being false.
Indeed but it doesn't hand it to the rightful winner Personally it’s baffling when people say well it was allowed so it’s ok or there was nothing wrong at all with it. Shows more about them than people realise.
