Personally I think that the FIA is to blame. There's no reason they couldn't have made a concession to allow Michelin to ship new tires to the 7 of 10 teams competing with unsafe rubber... nor is there any reason for them to have denied the installation of a chicane if they were making the drivers use the bad rubber...

I'd have to lay the blame at FIA's feet here. As soon as they were made aware that there was a problem, it was their duty as the sanctioning organization for the race to come up with a solution that the majority of the teams could live with and race with.
FIA should refund the racegoers money and not hide behind weasel words like "We will review the situation and then decide on a course of action"
Say What? :blink: you caused this fiasco FIA, you get to deal with it. If any team then refused to agree to the compromise that the majority went with? Screw them, this is about pulling off a race safely, not pandering to one or two holdouts. <_<
