Despite the clause in the Concorde Agreement which 'allows' teams to miss up to three races, the FIA has issued a warning to those teams that might be contemplating such a move.

A brief statement issued this afternoon read:

From a sporting and regulatory point of view, each Team that has registered for the Championship is obliged to take part in every event of the season. Any failure to take part, even for just one Championship event, would constitute an infringement both of the Concorde Agreement and the FIA Regulations.
