IMS: Don't blame us
George points finger at FIA, FOM and Michelin

Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Tony George released a statement this afternoon asking anybody who attended the farcical USGP to voice their displeasure to the parties involved the FIA, Formula One Management and Michelin tyres.

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway shares in the disappointment with the loyal fans of IMS and Formula One that we did not see the exciting race we all anticipated due to circumstances beyond our control.

The FIA, Formula One, the constructors and manufacturers that represent the cars on the starting grid made decisions on an individual basis to limit participation in today's USGP.

We suggest the fans who wish to make their feelings known, contact the following:

Michelin
46, rue du Ressort
63100 Clermont-Ferrand

FIA
8 Place de la Concorde
