MASI TIPPED FOR JOB WITH AUSSIE SUPERCARS
Former Formula 1 race director Michael Masi has been tipped to land a role as the chairman of the Australian Supercars.
The Australian, who was in charge of grand prix racing during the controversial final race of the 2021 season at Abu Dhabi where Max Verstappen beat Lewis Hamilton to the
World championship title, was a former deputy race director of the Supercars category before joining the FIA in 2018. He became the F1 race director when Charlie Whiting passed away at the start of 2019.
Masi was relieved of his race director role in the fall-out after the Abu Dhabi GP in 2021. Masi has been rumoured to be taking over from the current chairman of Supercars, who is racer-turnedcommentator Neil Crompton.
