About their veto, for example, that they eventually managed to keep. All in all, they were not easy negotiations and both sides had to make concessions. FIA president Jean Todt and Liberty Media boss Chase Carey are very happy that they succeeded.

“We are pleased that Ferrari is a signatory to the new Concorde Agreement, the three-way agreement that assures a stable future for the FIA Formula One World Championship. This is the pinnacle of motorsport and it is natural that the most successful team ever in this series in which it has always been a protagonist, should continue to be so for many years to come”, said Todt.
