It is the 9th June 2009 and this is your daily F1Minute.

More politics for you today, I’m afraid, starting with a letter from the FIA to FOTA that we found out about yesterday. Autosport reported that Max Mosley had written to the teams, suggesting that if they removed the conditions for their entry for 2010, they could help to shape the future regulations. He handed them another deadline, by close of play today, for them to respond and agree to the budget caps, citing that the best way to move forward is for everyone to be under the same regulations and to all agree to the modifications as they progress.

We have not heard from FOTA today, but they did reply to Max, and an FIA spokesperson would only reveal: “The FIA has received a letter and various attachments from FOTA, the contents of which are not entirely negative, and we are currently examining the details.”

So, we are still left wondering.

That’ll do for now, please join me again tomorrow for another F1Minute.
