Formula One motorsport director Ross Brawn feels that the sport shouldn't allow rule changes to be blocked by teams in the future. There were plans to introduce a reverse-grid in 2020 but two teams blocked the proposal.

When the new governance comes in, that will take over and allow the development of the rules as they are now,” Brawn told RaceFans.net.

But I think one of the crucial things about the governance going forward is we don’t have the situation where we get blocked completely from any change in the future.

The governance has to be a nicer and better balance of stability for the teams with the ability to make developments when they’re really essential.”

Ferrari does have the veto rights which come from the founding of the sport, although it is a rule which has never been changed over the years of the sport.
