Scuderia Ferrari satisfied with Court of Appeal decision 

Ferrari is completely satisfied with FIA’s International Court of Appeal decision to decline McLaren’s appeal over the ”cool fuel” issue of the Brazilian Grand Prix, labelling the appeal as a ‘desperate attempt’ to change the race results. With ICA’s decision to decline the appeal, considering it as “inadmissible”, Ferrari’s Finn champion, Kimi Raikkonen, is finally confirmed as the 2007 World Champion.

“Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro is completely satisfied with today’s decision of the International Court of Appeal, which confirms the result of the Brazilian Grand Prix, as a consequence of which Kimi Raikkonen won the Formula One Drivers’ World Championship,” the team stated. Jean Todt, Ferrari CEO, added: “The decision of the ICA finally brings to an end a very intense season, both on and off the track. Today, a final and desperate attempt to change the result obtained on the track was rejected. Now, all our efforts are focused on preparing for next season.”
