Red Bull's Helmut Marko hopes Ferrari loses driver points

Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa have been summouned by the FIA to the forthcoming disciplinary hearing of the World Motor Sport Council, 4 days from now, on September 8.

This is a claim of the Spanish sports daily AS, which stated that Alonso and Massa must appear either in person in Paris or via video link following the alleged team orders at the German GP.

Ferrari team boss has been however confident before the hearing.

“Sure the World Council will understand our point”, he had stated during last weekend.

The drivers too are confident and not under any pressure. “No, I don’t think so, we’re relaxed,” said Alonso.

Most of the managers of Ferrari's rival teams stated that team orders are a norm in F1, and a few even wanted the ban on it be removed.

However, Red Bull’s Helmut Marko, hopes the outcome will be a points loss for Ferrari and its drivers too.

Since Alonso is still in the hunt for the championship along with Red Bull's Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel, a point loss would seriously hurt his challenge.
