F1 teams union suspends Williams

• Fota temporarily suspends Williams over entry for 2010 season• Frank Williams: decision is 'regrettable but understandable'Williams have been temporarily suspended from the formula one teams' association (Fota) after breaking ranks over a disputed budget cap. The move comes two days after Williams lodged its entry for next season's formula one championship, ahead of Friday's deadline.That was in defiance of Fota, which has been in talks with governing body, the FIA, over plans to introduce a $60m budget cap next season. Ferrari and several other teams have threatened to pull out if the cap goes ahead.Explaining the situation, team principal Frank Williams said: "Fota's decision, although regrettable, is understandable. However, as a racing team and a company whose only business is formula one, with obligations to our partners and our employees, submitting our entry to next year's championship was unquestionable."In addition, we are legally obliged under our contract with FOM [Bernie Ecclestone's Formula One Management] and the FIA to participate in the world championship until the end of 2012."Williams' move goes against the grain of Fota's previously unified front in their fight with the FIA over the 2010 regulations. On Sunday, Fota called on FIA president Max Mosley to scrap the rules for next year that introduce a voluntary £40m budget cap, which in effect would create a two-tier championship.Before such a radical proposal, it is understood the two sides were slowly moving towards a compromise agreement, with Mosley suggesting an interim cap for 2010 followed by the full cap in 2011. Fota are conducting their latest meeting today but with Williams now absent – reducing their number from 10 to nine.WilliamsFormula oneMotor sportguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2009 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds
