Fact Season finale relocation to Imola in December raises conditions never covered by the Sporting Regulations

Decision The Stewards find that a season concluding at Imola in December would expose competitors to circumstances including: ambient temperatures more associated with pre-season testing in Antarctica; Ferrari supporters remaining optimistic despite overwhelming historical evidence; mechanics attempting to fit tyre blankets to themselves; and broadcasters describing 4°C as "ideal racing conditions." No provision exists in the Sporting Code for fitting intermediate tyres to snow. Formula One Management is authorised to proceed with contingency planning. Complaints regarding weather must be submitted within 96 hours of the arrival of spring. No right of appeal exists, because everyone knows it would be funny.
